| - We stopped in here for dinner because we'd just finished our first visit to Glazier's Marketplace, and we had a restaurant.com certificate. Not long ago we went to the Putter's on Cheyenne and weren't blown away by it, but the atmosphere here is totally different. You'd never know it was the same chain. This one has ambiance, nice lighting, and a terrific bar area with comfy, upholstered benches and high tables ringing the perimeter. We sat at one of these, since the dining room was closed.
Kyle, our server, doubled as the bartender (and maybe tripled as the cook, too). He was terrific - got everything right, even when I played "Five Easy Pieces" with the turkey sandwich I was ordering (rye instead of sourdough, pepper jack instead of swiss - no problem!). But I'm getting ahead of myself.
We started with Spicy Fried Pickles - six spears that were hot, crisp, and superb, served with bleu cheese dip? I don't know, because they didn't need any dip.
My turkey sandwich was big, hot, grilled, and delicious, and I was amazed to discover that it was real roast turkey! Kyle said they roast the turkeys on-site. My husband had the reuben, and it was also big, hot, grilled and delicious. For our sides, we skipped the fries and ordered a side salad (no extra charge). For a side, it was huge, served in a ceramic skillet-shaped dish, and had a mix of iceberg and romaine, three big slices of cuke, onions, carrots, cabbage, and chopped tomatoes.
The only thing interrupting our dinner experience was the two young women from Long Guyland at the bar who were plastered, and shrieked and cackled constantly, that is until one of the two got up and let some guy rub her boobs for what seemed like an hour (but was probably a minute and a half). That provided the visual entertainment, so I guess this Putter's has it all. We'll definitely be back!
