| - I located Proper while snooping around Yelp for an alternative to Il Pizzaiolo which had been our normal dinner spot when we make the occasional trip into town for a show. We went on a Friday evening and there was a 30 or so minute wait for a table for two. Once seated, we had a cozy table in the corner by the pizza oven. Our server was friendly and helpful and she made frequent stops to check in to see if we needed anything. To start, we split an order of the house chips and they were wonderful - thinly sliced and had a perfect balance of crunch/chewiness. The onion dip that comes with the chips was nicely done as well -- just the right bite of flavor but not overpowering. My wife had a house salad and Margherita pizza for her meal and she had great things to say about both. Her only regret was not ordering outside of her comfort box and getting a more daring pizza. I started with the Tuscan sausage soup which I enjoyed and had the pot pie which was very nicely done. It looks HUGE when it arrives but it worked out to be just the right size -- big enough that I was filled but not so big that I had to force myself to finish it. Somehow the whole thing seemed to remain piping hot the entire time I was eating it -- it didn't seem to cool off at all! The beer selection appeared to be all domestics, which for me was a bit of a downer. I am more traditional in my beer preference and tend to stick with established European brews. I am not a fan of the goofy named craft offerings that are trendy at the moment - I would have much preferred a wheat offering from Weihenstephaner, Franziskaner, Paulaner, Ayinger or Erdinger with my meal but the available Monkey Boy wheat wasn't horrible. Overall, a very nice dinning experience. Unfortunately, we didn't save room for dessert but from what we saw being delivered to some of the other tables, the desserts looked good, really GOOOD.. We'll be back again when we make the next trek into the city to see A Servant To Two Masters in a few weeks at the O'Reilly.
Updated: 12/6/15 - We visited Proper again last night before we went to see a show at the O'Reilly. We sat at the bar this time as the wait for a table might have caused us to miss the start of the show. Everything was fine but this time around wasn't quite as filling as the last time -- in retrospect, we probably should have started with a pizza or something. Service was fine at the bar although no one stopped to check on us to see if we needed anything once our food was served until all we had in front of us was empty plates and glasses.
