Big Cheezy* (#317, 4/2/15)
Getting way behind and too busy with other things at this time, but quickly will say, thumbs up to The Big Cheezy.
Wood Pizza & Bistro* (#316, 2/27/15)
Wood Pizza & Bistro seems like it will be a gold mine when there is nice weather. It has a lot of outside seating and is advertising it’s 4-6 happy hour. I will definitely come back for that. On a bitter cold February day, however, we had to sit inside. There are only three tables, a bar and a pizza bar (6-8 seats facing the “kitchen” area). The bar is very impressive, looks great, a lot of draft beers and good selection of other booze. As this was a quick lunch stop, we were very pleased when out tutti carne pizza – prosciutto, sausage, peperoni, maybe more meats. $16 total for the pizza and it came out very fast. It’s very thin crust cooked in the wood oven (I assume). Solid place. Hit it up for happy hour for sure.
Dis and Dat* (#315, 2/24/15)
A decent cheeseburger following a ridiculously long wait (45 minutes) does not make for a good lunch break. The place is small and cramped with limited parking and today it was freezing cold. Needless to say, not much of an impression made on me. I tried the burger with the sausage on top and like I said, it was decent, but after waiting as long as we did and being late back to work, it’s not worth risking it again.
Johnny Sanchez (#313, 2/4/15)
Good choice on Johnny Sanchez for a Pelicans pre-game stop. I highly recommend making it during Happy Hour (3-6). Half price drinks (includes cheap pitchers of house maragaritas) and $5 for pairs of tacos. They had a good-range of tacos and all seemed to be good-sized. I had a pair of pork tacos and a pair of chorizo/potato tacos. All solid. Good service at the bar and everyone was friendly with good decor. I’d go back.
