Awesome fare with a smile!
A must visit for all 18-25 guys,...when you visit you'll know why....nudge,nudge,wink,wink, say no more, say no more. Needless to say, we were greeted on a busy night with a genuine smile and enthusiasm. Great start.... Our appy was hot,toasted tri-colour tortillia chips with a rich heavy artichoke cheesewith Jalapeno dip that had a almost nutty flavour and the chips had that natural corn taste that everyone just loves. ( we did have to ask for more chips on the plate as I felt that they were a little too frugal on the chips for $9. ) I had a entree of Crispy Panko coated chicken pieces wrapped in small tortillias with cold ice-berg lettuce and fresh tomatos with a tangy ranch sauce. It was both satisfying and didn't clog the arteries. If you insist on clogging your arteries,..have the fries...OMG, they tasted so good you didn't care that they were bad for you.One common occurance again; the portions need to be more generous for the price of $13. Their pizza looked very authentic, with a thin crust and sparse sauce. The pizza was crunchy, piping hot and the toppings were just right and fresh. The steak was decent quality but not med. rare as asked, there fore it was dry and tough. As it is a flat-iron steak, order it rare or med-rare and insist that it is a little pink throufgout and you should be fine. At the end of the day, SJP's is a fun, warm inviting cool restaurant with a decent menu and excellent attentive, polite service. I really loved the way the staff worked as a team and we had several wait staff assisting us! Well-done ladies! My only complaint would be is that if you charge upwards of $12 for a casual entree, make the garnishes and portions more generous and satisfy your patrons. Happy Noshin' Brianm.
