| Johnny Corino's | Grand Junction, CO | |
|
Johnny Corino's is a great restaruant. The food is quite
good and has a very classic Italian feel. The rooms are dimly lit,
but not so dark that you can't read by the light unless you
have vision probelms that might hamper your sight in dim to low
light settings. The kitchen is open so while there is some additional
noise I have never had any problems talking to anyone I was with.
<br>
The waitstaff is well mannered and dressed. Most are very good
and keeping track of your needs and checking back often enough
to keep drinks fresh and let you feel that you are a valued customer.
<br>
The food has also always been wonderful. The flavor and texture
of their dishes is great, the only minus being that occasionally
the pieces of lasanga at the edge of the pan do sometimes get burnt
at the edges. Their sauces are top notch, one of the few places
that pays enough attention to also add carrot bits to the sauce.
<br>
Overall great place to eat, and a very special place to experience
Italian food at a high caliber.

| Texas Roadhouse | Grand Junction, CO | |
|
Although the Texas Roadhouse is a steak joint they sure aren't
limited to that, greta menu choice for all tastes, although especially
so if you have a taste for steak.
<br>
the Roadhouse is often crowded, so you have to come prepared for
a wait, but due to excellent service and chefs things move very
quickly. Also with the crowding it can get pretty loud so it may
not be a place for very young children, but other than that the
people are friendly and ready to help.

For the food... Everytime but once it has been great for me. It's
always hot and well seasoned. The only bad experience with the
food was one dry, tough steak, but 1 for 7 is a good record in my book,
and except for that one time it's unbeatable meat quality.
They also have a great list of side dishs to choose from.
<br>
One last word of warning... Come with your appetite
