As a business owner on Mill Ave, I was excited to finally try out Regions for lunch today which is literally a stones throw from our office.
My business partner and I walked over, had a friendly greeting from the staff and were seated right away. I was happy to see that there was actually a good amount of people in the restaurant, something that was hard to know from the street view.
A big fan of salads, I ordered the Grilled House Chicken Salad (I believe the name is correct, might be house grilled chicken salad) and my friend the Fish and Chips.
When the food came out I thought there was an error because there were two scoops of chicken salad, on my salad, where I was really looking for grilled chicken (not a big fan of mayo). What I realized is that I actually had ordered a chicken salad salad, that might contain grilled chicken. As far as how the menu was written I was convinced I was getting grilled chicken.
To the staff's credit, they swapped out the order right away with my next options, a grilled chicken caesar salad, however, it was too fast and I soon realized why. The salad was no more than bagged lettuce and precooked/grilled chicken thrown on top (with croutons, dressing, and grated parmesan cheese tossed on). Not how I want to spend $9.
Maybe it was my fault for trying the salads, but today they were certainly 0/2.
As far as the fish and chips went, I didn't have the fish, but the fries were pretty good.
I'll certainly try them again when I'm not in a salad or lunch mode, but with as times as tough as they are on Mill every detail matters!
