Garfield's Restaurant & Pub

My wife and I went here for lunch yesterday and I must say, we were not impressed. We got two appetizers, chicken strips and cheese fries. The chicken was hand breaded which is good but all the breading falls off into whatever,out of the jar, dipping sauce you choose and the fries were ok but a little heavy on the garlic.

I ordered a bacon and blue cheese burger "medium" which was so well done my father would surely have been a fan. My wife chose a rueben, which has become her standard sandwich whenever we go for lunch, and was equally disappointed. There was very little meat and what was there was cooked till it was tough as leather.
We split a slice of the "Colossal Ny Cheescake" which was indeed colossal and almost worth the visit, but at 6 bucks a slice, it should be.

We both agreed that this would be our one and only visit to Garfields and we wish we had, once again, chosen Texas Roadhouse for our lunch date while at Clearview Mall.

My family took me here after we went on a little road trip. Not knowing the area, we stopped here. I have to admit if I had known what it was going to be like I would have stayed hungry longer for a better place.

The ambiance is very generic. It is well lit, but when we were seated they had forgotten to wipe the table down. After we pointed it out a busboy quickly wiped it down without so much as a smile. Then they forgot to give us our silverware for some time.

The menu is relatively small with the standard fried foods with more fried foods. We ordered our drinks and they brought us completely different drinks then what we ordered. We sent them back, and waited another ten minutes for our drinks.

The actual food was all right. I ordered the fried shrimp with cocktail sauce, which is a pretty safe bet. The rice that came with it was all right, nothing to seriously complement.

Overall, I left without feeling hungry. I wouldn't go back though.
