I loved my meal at Geraci’s, but there are a few improvements that can be made. First of all, the place is absolutely tiny! There was a long wait, which is fine, but there’s basically no room to actually sit and wait. The tables are so close together, I felt like I was eating with a bunch of strangers. Also, there’s no hostess station so you have to make sure you catch the guy taking names so other people don’t just ahead of you in line.

That said, Germaine’s was pretty good, they definitely seemed to be sincerely into it, and its much easier to enjoy yourself when the performers are clearly having a good time.

I absolutely love places that use local ingredients and allows the fresh foods speak for themselves. We had heard about this place from Triple-D and wanted to try it while in Norfolk. The meatloaf was amazing and so rich and flavorful.

This place makes me happy. I love the purity of it. Its a super small place, nestled in a retail center next to a water and ice store. The same staff is always there, including the owner. Service is typically straight forward and gets the job done.

Hadn’t been to Giusti’s in years. Went down to the Delta to visit friends who tied up at Giusti’s dock last night and walked across the levee for dinner.
Had a few drinks then sat down for dinner. Owner Mark sat down and chatted with us briefly. Totally hands-on, family operation. Bleu cheese filet was phenomenal. Great fun.

When you are planning to spend the day “small business shopping” (read, hop around left and right like a crazed monkey with a closet problem), you want to fuel properly beforehand.
Glenn’s Diner seemed like a logical option, central to our shopping area with an old-school feel that I was really craving at the beginning of this holiday season.

We just love this place! They serve Salvadorian and Mexican food. I prefer the Salvadorian food. The food is delicious and fresh. We enjoy the pupusas (loroco and revuelta). The siete mares soup is really good too. The servings are large.

The big fluffy waffle in the shape of a flower tasted more like something straight out of a bakery vs. a dive. The home fries were hot & crispy. It’s worth the extra pennies to add fresh onions & peppers. The biscuits & gravy were delicious and I am super picky when it comes to that dish. My only minor complaint was our breakfast was served warm, not hot.

Crazy awesome burgers! Always busy, but always great. Parking can be nuts on weekends, it is a roadtrip stop off for everyone going up north or coming back south.

We have been cooking so much lately that when we do eat out we tend to try to figure out how to make it ourselves, but 1) I couldn’t figure out the spices (not too sweet or not corn syrupy-tasting, not too spicy) and 2) I didn’t want to! I just want to find excuses to go to Pacifica every weekend now so we can get some more. Next time, definitely the 3-meat platter.

Very diner feel (sticky menu and all). Great traditional food. They keep the breakfast item concentrated to classics which suits them perfectly.

I told the waiter that I wanted an eggplant salad sandwich – then changed my order about four more times in the next five minutes because indecision is my worst quality.

My bf and I went here after we were turned down at the Barton Springs Saloon next door, and were warmly welcomed. Our waiter ( I wish I could remember his name) was great; fast, friendly and to the point. We both got bbq pulled pork sandwiches with fries and tater salad. Very relaxed and casual atmosphere.

Serving up some of the best pizza, original sandwiches, fresh salads and cold beer.

Nothing and I mean nothing in Canada can compare to what Grover’s offers. I am not sure if it a US/Canada thing but I find restaurants such as this scattered across the US who offer great value for your money.

My dude is a fan of the Portuguese pork chops and beer and I’m perfectly happy with just about anything on the menu. The specials board always has more than a few enticing options and the dessert portions are nicely generous.

I had the flying pig, which just by namesake is phenomenal. The dish braised pork, some fried garlic, with a “one hour” egg (similar to a poached egg but not as runny), and covered in sirachha over rice. Just delicious. Soft pork mixed with the yolk of the egg melts in your mouth with some hearty rice, couldn’t be better.

An appropriate (if not exactly recommended) response to this might be that you take a tentative sip, contemplate the questionable nature of the mouthful, and then level your judgment.
