This was a random dinner (as many of mine are). A place that was close, when hunger hit.
I remember the building in a past life as being something else (a Kelsey's??) so there is that "big chain with makeup" on it element.
But while you could probably slap any number of labels over it based on appearance ... Moxies... Earl's... etc,. when the food arrived, it wasn't what you might expect. It shone.
The meals were both delicious (salmon and chicken), and in substantial portions, so you you could actually enjoy the MAIN that you had your eye on.
Hold on a just a sec, I need to say something:
When I look at a menu, and I order a main, it's because THAT ONE ITEM IS WHAT I WANT. I DON'T want to have to eat 17 courses just to be "full," and teased by a " 2 ounce main" for $50.
That's what i loved about this place -- they brought it, in the sweet spot that I wanted. Exactly what I was hoping for, and enough that I didn't leave wishing I had more.
