We had dinner at ClarkeBros over in Riverside this evening. They're at 2545 Riverside Avenue, right…read moreacross from St Vincent with parking available at the side of their entrance. This is one of those places that we love but haven't been to in far too long. We both tried things that were new to each of us tonight as well, which was cool. I ordered The Ole Smokie, with everything on it and choose cheddar cheese. My first thought when it was brought to the table was "oh, I'll probably have to go at this with a fork & knife" but I decided to give it a shot as intended. I'm glad I did because the bread held up surprisingly well! As far as ingredients go, the brisket was good and smokey. There was a good mix of everything else and more than enough cheddar. My wife ordered the Chicken Cheesesteak. She also had a choice of cheese and she picked whizz. The thing that separates this from what people might expect is that it's chunks of chicken, not shredded chicken. She said that's not a bad thing at all, just a change from what some might exoect. She thought it was a welcome change. She liked their cheese whizz a lot and liked the roll as always, so she was glad she tried it. It's worth noting that both sandwiches were big enough that we both took half of each home. I didn't get the name of the two people that were working there this evening, but I'd still like to give then a shout out. They were both incredibly patient with the customers ahead of us and they didn't make us feel rushed even though we were there fairly close to the time they close on Friday evenings. Another good visit to Clarke Bros. Here's hoping it doesn't take us so long to get back here again for the next visit!

Came here during lunch time on a Tuesday. It was very busy and a long wait. When it was time to…read moreorder, they were mostly out of everything. I got the Reuben with pastrami and the wings. Both of these were very good. My husband ended up getting a chicken club or something because they were out of the two the things he wanted to try. He also ordered the bacon and cheese tots.

Now for the arepas we got a chicken one and a beef, then shared, let me say both were incredible! The corn cakes were thin and cooked perfectly and held up to the massive amounts of filling stuffed inside. So flavorful the chicken salad with avocado delicious, the beef with cheese and sweet plantains, so many flavors and textures, one bite and you just wanted more! We destroyed these, no leftovers, so good! oh definitely get some of the cilantro sauce too! loved it , can't wait to visit again!

I went to Pinegrove Deli with very little idea of what to expect and was happy with my choice. After intensely studying the menu I finally decided on the Ortega. I love chicken salad so jazz it up with some tabouli and put it in a pita and I'm sold! I also ordered a side of onion rings which were also good. There was a pretty long wait to order, I'm not sure if the kitchen was backed up or they were short staffed but it was drastic enough that some people left before ordering and regulars were mentioning the wait time was getting worse. I have nothing to compare it to but it was 12:30 on a Saturday so it might have also just been a rush.

I had the kismet - omg the combo with the hot honey had me inhaling it. We also tried their Mac and cheese. It has a hint of chipotle but it's not hot, noodles perfectly cooked and plenty of creamy sauce - so delicious and topped with bacon bits(real). There was a line to order when we came in, tons of take out orders and a dozen table in and outside. With all that once we ordered it only took a few minutes for our order. There were 5 people in the open kitchen and 2 order takers. The decor is pretty much burger joint. Not a bunch of space between the tables.

This was my first time getting this burger and I loved every last CRUMB of this burger. I tend to switch it up every time I come because of much I enjoy the burgers (and the chicken sandwich), but this just may be my go-to going forward because man, was this crazy good. Hubby got his usual which is the OBX. That comes with poblano mayo, cajun ranch, bacon, lettuce, tomato, and keylime guacamole. He literally gets this every single time and never deviates. We usually split a tray of the bacon ranch fries but we decided to switch it up a little and get the nachos fries. While the nachos fries were great, we both agreed that we like the bacon ranch ones much more. We also agreed that next time, we're going to get the Jax Style fries and compare those as well. We got here around 8pm and as per usual the line was out the door and stayed that way through the duration of our meal. It's not difficult to see why their voted Number 1 in Jax.

We visited on a Friday evening with a reservation for 9 women at 7:15 PM. Everyone in our party had…read morearrived by approximately 7:25. We were looking forward to a nice dinner together, and while there were definitely some highlights, the overall experience was a little disappointing. First, the positives! The restaurant has a lovely atmosphere, and we really liked the menu and the variety of options. The broccolini was excellent and something I would absolutely recommend. The beets were delicious, and the mushrooms were fantastic. The focaccia, unfortunately, was a bit dry, and the short rib I shared with a friend was extremely fatty, which was disappointing. Where the evening really fell short was the service. Our server seemed rather disengaged from our table throughout the evening. She rarely checked on us, and despite everyone arriving by 7:25, we didn't get our orders placed until approximately 8:15. Our food didn't arrive until around 9:15, making for a very drawn-out dinner with long gaps between courses. At one point, we genuinely wondered whether our order had been forgotten. I understand that serving a party of nine can be challenging, especially when most guests are paying separately, and I certainly try to be mindful of that. However, the restaurant didn't appear overwhelmingly busy. When we arrived, I'd estimate the dining room was about 70% full, with a full bar. By the time we were finishing up, only a couple of other tables remained. What made the service particularly disappointing was watching our server interact warmly and attentively with another large party that arrived after us and finished before us. Perhaps they were regulars, I'm not sure, but the difference in engagement was noticeable. We never really felt that same level of hospitality. Toward the end of the evening, one woman in our party requested her check and waited approximately 30 minutes without the server returning. She eventually went to the bar to settle her bill herself. I don't like judging a restaurant solely on one experience, especially when there were dishes we genuinely enjoyed and the atmosphere was so nice. There is definitely potential here, and I would like to think our experience wasn't typical. Unfortunately, the slow pacing and lack of attentive service really took away from what should have been an enjoyable evening with friends. I hope this was simply an off night, because there were certainly things worth coming back for.

I love the bread they use; it was very moist and had great taste. The ingredients on the Philly were also very tasty and loved the flavor! All the staff were super friendly. The shop was very clean. We definitely recommend Jersey Mike's Subs! The next time we go we won't to try a different sandwich instead of the Philly. Thinking maybe we will try the #2 or the #13.
