After reading 39 reviews for this restaurant, my stomach started to yell "FEED MEEEEE!"
The anxiety I had to try this new place led me there for dinner earlier this week.
Food Ordered: Wife ::::Pulled Pork Torta:::: Me::::Sexy Time Panini::::
Walking in we were greeted immediately. Which automatically won me over because now days it is very unexpected for employees to value customer service!
We sat next to a children's section they had in the restaurant that consisted of a chalk board and connect four game. My daughter was very quickly entertained. A happy child, is a happy parent. Another reason why yelp points were easily boosted. Oh also can't forget to mention high chairs were super clean, so kudos to Graze.
Dummm dumm daaaa dummmm- food arrived to the table by the outstanding employee, another great touch to customer service. The food display on the plate was sandwich cut right down the middle in half making it easier to eat. Especially for a one handed person like myself. Both sandwiches were really huge. The side i ordered was salad which they put enough to fill you up. The side wife ordered was chips, which was a very poor amount. Chips were good though.
I take a bite of the Sexy Time panini which consisted of chicken, bacon, caramelized onions, thyme, chili flakes, and brie. Flavor overload, the melted brie with the crispy bacon but not over cooked bacon and the yummy caramelized onion, was sooooo delicious. The light hint of thyme and chili flakes complemented to other ingredients in like a symphonic unison on you taste buds. Stupid good.
After that bite, I look at the Pulled Pork Torta and its like a tug of war battle. Its says show me some love. I proceed to take a big chompppp! The Pulled Pork Torta consist of chipotle dressing, avocado, pickled jalapeños and fresh cilantro. The Pulled Pork was nice and moist and cooked to perfection, the ripe avocado melted like butter right into the sammich, the pickled jalapeños and chipotle sauce was popping off like Bonnie and Clyde. Due to the pulled pork being perfectly cooked, my opinion was that it didn't need to put too much chipotle sauce of the sandwich. It was overpowering to the sad pickled jalapeños but with the fresh cilantro brought the spicy kick back a little to soothe your taste buds from the spicy kick your mouth just took.
Overall a great place to get an awesome sandwich and spend some quality time as a family.
The Graze has 2 other locations located in Walla Walla and they deliver and cater to parties. Their hours are kinda weird, they open 7 days a week from 10:00am-7:30pm Mondays thru Saturdays, and on Sundays they only open from 10am to 3pm. It does maximize profits since most restaurant down peak right at 7:00pm.
Food to the Face score of 4 out of 5 stars
Took the star away due to the Pulled Pork Torta being over sauced with the Chipotle
Also they didn't ask if we needed a drink to compliment our meal.
Definitely will be back to try the different options available and will keep Yelp updated on this outstanding rare gem in the Tri-Cities read more
