HUGE. I ordered the fajita burrito with enchilada sauce on it, and it did not disappoint. I enjoyed the subtle flavors, the spices, and the prices.
The good:
My wife and I ordered the steak fajitas. I know one other poster noted there was only one pepper, and I was curious what he meant, so I didn't alter the order. It came with two giant rings of peppers on top, and that's all. However, I am more interested in quality than quantity, especially with peppers, and this one must have been seasoned or something because it was tasty. As for the steak -- woo boy, Uncle Bill in SA, you better watch yourself because you now have a competitor for your backyard skirt steak. AND A HALF POUND/PERSON? Jeebus, we took the rest home and made steak and eggs for breakfast. My parents ordered tacos and enchiladas, and they liked their.
strange: Their was indeed a whole lot of older folks eating here. Someone else mentioned it, and I will, too. not sure what that means, but this was not necessarily a hip swinging joint if that's your thing.
strangely awesome: first time in my life I have ever seen mouthwash and little plastic cups for it in the bathroom. It was in a soap like dispenser. Now I wonder why more restaurants don't do that..
Anywho, the decor was nice, and I particularly liked the layout with the bar in the middle and pierced copper walls.

Ever hear of an Arnold Palmer?
I *heart* that answer. I love those -- and he was about to make one for me. His sweet tea:
5 count sweet tea
3/4 oz triple sec
sweet and sour to taste
lemon squeeze
shake in shaker until frothy.
Devastatingly tasty, a mouthful of evil lusciousness, and stronger than a medieval henchman.

And now...the review:
*****Roger was our server, and he was stellar. Humor, speed, and checking on us was perfect.
****Food was varied. I had the chicken fried steak, which was average--not good nor bad. My wife had the crab Benedict. The crab cakes an sauce were great, but the eggs were a tad overcooked.
However, the amazing bloody mary's made up for any shortcomings.
****bang for the buck was varied, as the bloody mary's were high bang, the food low bang.
Overall 4 stars. And extra props to an excellent server!

Piecora's Original New York Pizza
Category: Pizza
Neighborhood: Central District
Our server Kevin totally rocked it--he was funny and totally new York, and made my friends birthday dinner.
Bang for the buck was high, and food quality, as always, was high. One small issue was getting the appetizer with the meal instead of before...but that's not really too big a deal.

1) Waitstaff was superb. We made them put with 30 of us, all of us full of energy and boisterous (yet not rude), and they handled us with ease and grace. They navigated our orders and kept our refills going.
2) The food. Dear lord.....I had a chicken friend steak and mashed potatoes. It was delightfully crunchy, very tasty, and not greasy. Also, it was not overly large -- another win. Also, I have no idea what brand of tea or lemondade they use in their Arnold Palmers, but they nailed it.
3) The desserts get their own category -- they have they handmade four berry pies in bowls, fresh baked then smothered with vanilla ice cream. Also, they have a brownie cake heated and smothered with ice cream. Fortunately our table got both, then we ate bites of both. I'd imagine this is what gods eat for dessert ;-)
4) The check - they did it by table, and when we went to pay they even split it further to help us out. Usually you get one giant bill, and then split, however this was easier on us. We gave them a huge tip for doing that.
Is it cheap? No, but also not expensive. This is very, very high on the bang for the buck....so get on down there! Git!

Highs: great French bread, high quality meats, decent value, clean.
Lows: too much sauce, and not enough sauerkraut on my reuben.
Definitely worth checking out...

Date

I kinda wish I lived closer just so I can watch everyone interact. It's like being in your grandma's kitchen, except with lots of people you don't know and a cash register. Heh.
