The have always been actual breast pieces - moist, tender with a crunchy coating. I order the dish tonight to find that the pieces of chicken are processed and not actual pieces of breast meat. While tasty, they are far from the chicken thumbs that were served just weeks before our visit this evening. Sadly. I don't know if I will order them again. Wrong move, Geckos.

I…read moredropped in after trying to find a local sit-down restaurant for lunch for a party of four on an early Saturday afternoon. The down home digs were homey and inviting and we chose to eat outside in the covered patio out front. The menu is interesting and varied; I'd state some of the food is county-style and some has a Cuban flair. My shrimp entree, which I chose to have, accompanied by rice and beans was very good. My daughter selected the chicken fingers and the portion was hearty and she devoured it. JR's has a special brunch menu and live music regularly so check out their website for information. Check this place out if you like charming-go frills places with great food.

Before I share my review, I want to start off by saying that this is my family's and my opinion…read moreonly. I'll start with the positives. The food was good. We all basically got various versions of chicken souvlaki. I got the horiatiki salad with souvlaki chicken. It was very flavorful and I loved all the veggies and olives plus delicious feta. My SIL and husband had the two versions of the souvlaki platter which they enjoyed. The chicken was very tender. My SIL didn't really care for the fries. My husband didn't like the vegetables being on top of the Greek potatoes that weren't very good. The primary issue was the woman who waited on us. We were seated a few minutes after we arrived. Unfortunately, we were not given menus which was frustrating and instead of the woman owning it herself, she blamed it on the new guy. We ordered and it took a while to get our food and the restaurant wasn't that busy. The woman kept complaining about various things and I assume most people could hear. Not really the vibe you want when trying to enjoy a meal with family you don't get to see very often. It also took a while to get the check and to go boxes. Everyone has a bad day and the holidays are stressful times. I hope it was just a one off.

I'm already a fan of playa bowls and their awesome smoothies so this time, we had the Pink Pitaya Smoothie (pitaya and coconut milk) and Dolce Latte Smoothie (banana, chocolate protein, peanut butter, coconut milk). The dolce smoothie was delicious, loved how it had the drizzled pb on the sides so anytime you wanted a bit of a pb flavor as you sipped, you just need to guide your straw to it. So good! Love when smoothie places have not just whey protein but plant protein both vanilla and chocolate. Because we all know, vanilla is just vanilla :) Great place, makes you feel fresh and tropical when you walk in and I can't wait to try a smoothie the bowl next time! I just need to figure out a hack on how to NOT get brain freeze hehe.
