Met an AOB buddy here for lunch. The first thing is parking. This restaurant is located on the S.E. corner of Scottsdale Rd & Thomas Rd in the Albertson's center next to Chipotle. Parking can be a bit of a hassle. The Friday S & I met, there was very little open parking at 12:15.
The facility itself was very clean. S & I were politely greeted by Audrey G. as we walked in the front doors. After checking out the menu S & I made our choices.
S ordered the Grilled Mahi, Cajun style with Coleslaw and garlic fries. ($10.99).
I ordered the same thing but with seasoned vegetables instead of the Coleslaw. ($10.99).
Then came the wait. And boy did we wait. 18 minutes from the time I was handed my receipt to the time our name was called. Yes, there was a good lunch crowd but I think honestly the girl working the grill was a bit overwhelmed.
The portion size of everything on the plate was decent. There was a good pile of fries and they were nicely seasoned with a mild garlic flavor. The seasoned vegetables were undercooked and a bit on the hard side, hence the 4 Star. There was a good selection however as my order contained Broccoli, Green & Yellow Zucchini and Carrots. Impressive selection for a restaurant of this level. The Mahi Mahi was nicely grilled, again, a tad over cooked but not to the point of being to dry to eat. The Cajun seasoning gave the fish a very nice added kick of flavor without being overwhelming. Winner winner Mahi Mahi dinner.
S said the Coleslaw was fine and that was the only difference between our lunches. Personally, since they were both the same price, I think my plate with the nice pile of vegetables was a better deal than S's and his pile of Coleslaw. But, that's a personal preference.
We also got fountain drinks. ($1.99)
Lousy parking. Nice Staff. S L O W service. Great portion size. Fair pricing. 4 Stars
