Recently went to Funks for lunch with the family. This was my third time at Funks. Each time I go, things are just okay. This time around I chose to order the veggie wrap. The best way I can describe this dish is a pasta dish with no pasta. It was a warm mess of grilled vegetables doused in basil pesto. The oil from the pesto, or addition of more oil, made for a messy wrap. Plus, the flavors were just, well, blah.
Let's break the two stars down:
1. GREAT Fried green beans. I've never had fried green beans before. They're now on my list to try at more restaurants. These were great because they green bean had a bite to them and the batter to green bean ratio was just right.
2. One of the few bars in the area worth giving a try. Unfortunately, Fitchburg isn't the best place for eateries. Funks gets a star for being one of the better options in Fitchburg. (Doesn't say much, does it?)
Worth giving a go if you'd like to beer and an app. If you're looking for a great meal, I'd recommend another spot.
