| - We were on a bike ride and passed this place bristling with people on our way out for a bike ride, blowing away, in comparison, the activity at every other place we passed.
Stopped here on a blisteringly hot day on the way home, we were both bordering on heat stroke, so our orders, a chicken club sandwich with onion rings and a turkey sandwich with lettuce tomato and mayonaisse with fries, weren't typical of what we saw leaving the kitchen.
Contrary to the category into which someone opted to place them they may serve pizza, (don't know for sure), but that most certainly is not their raison d' etre.
They call themselves a steakhouse, so pizza??!!
First the bad news, the fries did not appear to be fresh-cut but rather frozen, and overcooked regardless.
The good news, the turkey wasn't processed stuff held together with gobble-goo, it was actual turkey breast sliced and nicely stacked for a lighter-side gnosh.
The chicken club was a freshly grilled chicken breast with a reasonable slap of cooked-on-site bacon on top and the rings were made on premise and quite good.
The view, however, of the over-filled platters of fish, chicken, seafood platters, steaks and the like that came piling out of the kitchen for diners who had arrived in air-conditioned comfort, with unencumbered appetites certainly gave one pause to contemplate a re-visit when we were similarly inclined to dine more heartily.
Feeling that we hadn't adequately sampled full-blown dinner fare is in large part the reason for the three stars rather than four.
It's a bit difficult to accurately judge a place that serves a full cadre of home-style cooked fare through consumption of a couple of sandwiches, but we certainly werren't disappointed with the fare we ordered.
