| - We had a very enjoyable dinner at The Spot on Friday evening. We had a short wait at 6:00, but the place is really cute and cozy, so we didn't mind. Our table opened up much sooner than the 30-40 minutes quoted. They have a large drink menu that includes beers, wines and specialty drinks. My three dining partners all opted for beers and I had a specialty drink called The Foosie Woo Woo (Plantation Rum, fresh lime juice, ginger liqueur, cane sugar, lime: up) I was not disappointed with the Foosie. For dinner, I had the pan fried walleye that came with mashed sweet potatoes. The fish was cooked just right and the sweet potatoes were very good also. The others had the Poor Man's Paella (which I got a taste of and enjoyed very much!) Pulled Pork Meatloaf served with mashed potatoes, and The Spot Burger with greens. Everyone enjoyed their meal, and our waiter, Adam, was very knowledgeable and personable. There were two things that disappointed slightly...my water glass did not get refilled until we were almost finished eating, and the sides are a little strange to me: Black Beans & Rice, Mustard Greens, Potato Salad, Seared Greens, Polenta or Mixed Greens with Vinaigrette. Call me crazy, but I need a french fry option to go with a burger. All in all it is a great little place. I hope they do well.
