| - Just visited the FP on Pima on Saturday for lunch. We hadn't been in a while, but have never had a bad meal there. The streak continues.
First off, they are not afraid of trying new things at Four Peaks, and I've never experienced a failed experiment. Also, the service has always been efficient, fast and friendly.
Btw...major kudos to them for putting their kids menus on the back of those little magnetic/erasable drawing tablets. Kept my 2 1/2 year old busy for at least 10 minutes - and that's saying something!!
We tried the shrimp and goat cheese bruschetta, which tasted even better than it sounds. And it wasn't anything we expected. Bruschetta is usually some slivers of bread, with a few toppings. Good, sure, but this thing was a mountainous monstrosity of dee-lish-us-ness. Imagine a plate of tacos, but the chips are bruschetta bread, and the toppings are diced tomatoes in olive oil, plenty of chunks of goat cheese, and 6 large succulent shrimp. Heaven, but almost too much!
I took the server's suggestion and tried the beer bread steak sandwich, which was essentially a cheese steak with onions and peppers served in a delicious homemade "beer bread" - kind of like a moist, soft, ,chewy tortilla. As Cookie Monster would say, and I quote, "YUM YUM YUM YUM YUM!"
My wife had the panko-crusted sea bass salad, which she raved about after every bite. And the wife is one of those unlucky-at-food, who rarely gets anything that tastes like she thinks it's going to taste. Even the cheeseburger and fries was devoured by my kid.
For the first time, I didn't try a beer here, but I was sorely tempted by the Pumpkin Ale on tap. If not for the heartburn and lack of Tums citrus, I would have gladly quaffed a pint.
Love this place!!
