Bellevue Restaurant Review: Five Guys

Image
 I love Five Guys and their influence keeps extending across the nation.  However I was disappointed with the Five Guys in Kingman.  This is what I wrote:   Five Guys  was a bit of a disappointment.  Their hamburgers are the same, and I love it with mushrooms.  I always order the baby because two patties of the regular overwhelm the flavor of the mushrooms.  In Kingman the store does not have ice cream.  I was looking forward to a caramel shake.  Instead they told me to go to Baskin Robins next door.  Five Guys in Kingman does not have ice cream!!!! Fortunately the five Guys by our home does have ice cream.  I really enjoyed my sea salt caramel shake.  I of course ordered the single patty with mushrooms and mayonnaise.  It was excellent.  I really like the way they over fill the fries.  I ordered one fry for both Tony and I and it was more than enough with some left over.  I also enjoy their peanut...

Omaha Restaurant Review: Jackson Street Tavern

Image
 Charity turned us on to this restaurant downtown off of Jackson at about 12th street as a place to go for good French onion soup.  Sheri really likes French onion.  I go for the salmon--but the salmon dinner is too expensive so I have a salad with salmon.  The dinner salad and the salmon are both excellent.  I will also have soup there.  Sheri really likes their French diponion soup and I think that is all she has ever tried.  Tony when he went had the Salmon dinner.  I would not give this restaurant the highest of marks but pretty close.

Bellevue Restaurant Review: Fazoli's

Image
 This is our first venture to a new restaurant, albeit a fast-food chain.  Who ever heard of a fast-food Italian restaurant.  We went to the drive-up window.  Sheri had spaghetti and meatballs, I spaghetti without meatballs and Tony Chicken fettuccine.  We also had bread sticks.  Tony said his meal was excellent, especially the chicken.  SHer i said hers was passable.  Mostly she ate the meat balls.  I enjoyed my spaghetti.  The portions were super large.  I have been eating spaghetti everyday for lunch and still have plenty left over.  The bread sticks were excellent.  The price for everything was a little steep for fast food, but isn't everything lately.
