| - Lately, I've been occasionally hitting the LVAC on Sahara. Several times, I see the Johnny Fontane's Beach House sign and resist the urge to give it a try since i'm still on my work out high. yesterday I gave into the temptation since I was starving during my entire work out. As soon as I got into my car, I pull up the Yelp app, find JFBH and call in an order.
Ordered a small sausage pizza and a meatball sub - cost together - $16.50, very reasonable. Told food will be ready in 20 minutes.
After calling in order, I continued sitting in car returning a few calls and texted the gf.
After 20 minutes, I drove all of 50 yards parked in front of JFBH and went in with the drool starting to build up.
A few guys playing pool, creating a smoke cloud and drinking a few beers. One other barfly at the end of the bar shooting the bull with the bartender. I look around the bar and try to figure out why the place is called a "beach house " - oh well. The bartender comes up, tell her I called in an order. She leaves bar to check my order - she comes back to tell me a few more minutes and asks if I want a drink - I politely decline. The bartender was pleasant. I sit down - a few more texts, check a few websites on my phone, about 10 minutes go by. The bartender comes over and says she'll check on my order. She comes back and says a few more minutes. She gives me the check and I pay. Another five minutes goes by and she comes back with my order.
First thing I notice is how heavy the bag is on top of the pizza - geez, what is this sammie made of - lead ??
Get home with the food. I like that they provide ranch dressing presumably for dipping the fries in. The fries have that slight coating that provides greater crunch. Decent sized sammie. The meatballs ? Very dense, juicy but I'm curious if the meatballs are actually "homemade" ( not that anyone represented to me that they were ) - overall, ok.
The pizza - good sized for a small - light on sausage. Sauce is good, crust, decent. Overall, an ok pizza especially for the price.
I have a feeling i'll return ( post work out )
