  • Ah... The Penguin and all it's polemic. I wasn't part of this sissy fight between the Ballentines and the McCoys... I mean, Jimmy and Brian, but I do remember the way The Penguin was when J&B had it and the new Ballentine Penguin. So let's start with this so called "soul" everyone was so up in arms about losing. Yeah, I can admit, it's not there anymore. The place looks more polished and, at least when I was there, our waitstaff did not seem to blend in with your typical Plaza-Midwood natives. (But I've also been to The Diamond and the "soul" that once resided in The Penguin certainly did not migrate to The Diamond either). Aside from that though, it was like any other day at The Penguin during the day. We went around 6 or so on Friday so the place was fairly dead except for some families. Our waitress was very nice and engaging and suggested food and came around often and overall did an excellent job. The, whom I am assuming is the manger or owner, came over to our table and politely asked how our food was which always adds brownie points. We shared an order of fried pickles and they were as salty as J&B's version so nothing new there. I ordered the Killer Pimp dog which comes with Pimento Cheese and 3 fried pickles. It was NOT bad by ANY stretch of the imagination but there was nothing special to it either. I was expecting something different since I'd never heard of pimento cheese and fried pickles on a dog but ultimately it wasn't something I'd ever crave or order again. The onion rings were good for me, again, nothing to write home about but Becky thought they needed more salt. Our order came out fast and our beer was nice and cold. I can't say that I've any complaints about my visit to The Penguin. I don't think the food is any better or any worse and I certainly don't have to worry about picking favorites over The Diamond and The Penguin since they are now both comparably mediocre at best.
