Dinner and drinks with the girls last night and decided on Spitfire.
I have to say... just not as impressed with the food this time... Maybe it was an off night or something but it just wasn't anything special.
We started with the "Avocado & Charred Tomatillo Guacamole with Crispy Pita Chips" ... certainly did not taste like it was fresh made this time and there was no charred tomatillo in it... can honestly say it tasted more like the Wholly Guacamole brand you get at the grocery store. The pita chips... ADDICTIVE! So light and yummy!
For an entree, I ordered the Cobb Salad of Iceberg, Romaine, Applewood Bacon, Avocado, House-Dried Tomatoes, Roasted Corn, Queso Fresco & Roasted JalapeƱo Ranch sans the bacon (no pork for me!) with the dressing on the side. I was feeling somewhat indecisive when it came to which dressing so between myself and one of the other girls we asked for their three different types on the side. The salad was pretty standard... nothing really exciting here. As for the dressings: Jalepeno Ranch: good flavor... probably best described as a runny ranch with a kick. Walnut Vinaigrette: Not what I expected in a vinaigrette... Thick! Flavor was kind of bland... Just not a fan of this one. White Balsamic & Fig Dressing: was excited to try this one since one of the girls really liked this one. Again this one was thick! OK flavor... definitely would probably be better already tossed in the salad and not on the side.
Each of decided that the food was OK... Not spectacular but decent.
The service however was excellent! Our server, Bob was friendly, attentive and offered excellent service. Probably more impressively he put up with us and our craziness that some times occurs when we get together for girl talk! ;) He was the highlight of the experience!
Overall, I have to say... I have concerns on whether this place will be around for long... We were there on a Friday evening from about 5:30 until about 7:30 and can say that they were not very busy. When we left there was only two other tables and maybe 2 people in the bar area hanging out with the people that worked there...
Here's hoping that they figure it out... love the atmosphere of the place and would hate to see another restaurant go under in this location.
