| - Nied's isn't the kind of place you go to for a salad. I learned that first hand. This past Saturday after changing our dinner venue three times we ended up at this dive. Shocker my group of 10 couldn't just walk into any restaurant on a Saturday evening and get a table. Lousy planners.
Neid's is definitely a dive, but that's cool. They know it and show it proud. Nothing too fancy going on in here. We grabbed some beers and settled into a long card table awaiting to order food. Our waitress was a class act, not to mention a natural born salesperson. I found it funny how all her "suggestions" were so persuasively formed. "How about two baskets of fries for each side of the table?" My party, um ok. Sure. "Great and you have to get the cheese too," as she continues to write on the pad undoubting the additional cheese. "Oh and your gonna want to get some provolone sticks, they are great." Really they are great? Looks like a standard frozen provolone stick to me. My party, "sure, sounds good".
Now me, Neid's is known for their fish sandwich, at least that's what's on their sign and what the waitress said. "It's the best". Of course it is, like the provolone sticks I'm sure. Regardless she tells everyone that if it's not the best they ever had she will not charge for it. Well then maybe it is the best, perhaps unlike the provolone sticks. I really wanted to try the fish, but I have been trying to eat very healthy. No fried food, no simple carbs, or junk. So Neid's menu is not for someone like me. Primarily everything is deep fried. They do have a breakfast, but I assumed at 6 pm on a Saturday, they weren't serving that. I was so hungry too. I had only had one egg in the morning so it was a full blown hangry attack. I saw they have salads so I went with a grilled chicken salad.
Stuff begins to flow out of the kitchen, or more like the fryer area in the corner of the bar. Everyone at my table got something fried. The two baskets of fries with cheese show up. My friends fish sandwich shows. The other people in our party food shows up. It very much seemed that they serve it as they make it, so one sandwich comes out. Then a minute later another. Meanwhile, I and one other lady ordered the chicken salad, and it is nowhere to be found. I did snack on two fries while I waited because I was starving. I thought they were really good, or maybe I was just really hungry. So everyone is about finished and still no salads. My friend makes a joke, "Ha ha, you can tell they aren't used to people ordering salads here!" Yea funny. Salads show up. Visually they looked terrible. Mostly made up of yellow, bitter iceberg lettuce hearts. I was so hungry though I just dived in. I ate the whole thing and quickly but mostly due to my then current state of starvation.
In conclusion, maybe the fish is great, I don't know. But the salad is not. I would return if bar hoping in Lawrenceville, since I do like dive bars. Maybe someday I will get to try that fish.
