I'm using this as my benchmark for a future review of Wing Stop's boneless wings. The cost of the Garlic Sticks with Cheese was $6.99. It was $9.99 for the KC Masterpiece BBQ wings which is 8 ounces. These sides are from Mountain Mike's Pizza, El Camino Avenue, Carmichael, California. I forgot to take a picture before I began my devouring. I split the sides to make two meals. I ate three breadsticks and three boneless wings the day before for my combination Lunch/Dinner. I will say, I was pleased the wings weren't wet as shown in the…

Methodology: I will judge the dish on its appearance, texture, amount, price, components, and taste. I then will rate the dish from 1-5 stars. I will say the servers are always kind and attentive to the restaurant clientele. In the times I have eaten there, it was always a positive experience. This was a takeout order.If you will please indulge me for a bit, I promise you will be awed by my candor, as well as being entertained. Because of my recent dental implants, firm foods are a no-no. The bone fuses with the titanium over the…

I will say the servers are always kind and attentive to the restaurant clientele. In the times I have eaten there, it was always a positive experience. This was a takeout order.

Methodology: I will judge the dish on its appearance, texture, amount, price, components, and taste. I then will rate the dish from 1-5 stars. I have never been disappointed in any dish from Mesa Mercado. This was a takeout order. The fish and the squash are grilled, giving a slight pleasant smokey taste. For this price, I would have expected a third more rice with the dish. The lemon flower cut is the best I've seen for drizzling. The squash was cooked just right. The fish was cooked just right. It was moist inside with a slight…

I will say the servers are always kind and attentive to the restaurant clientele. In the times I have eaten there, it was always a positive experience.  I ordered this dish for takeout. The menu picture in no way resembles what is delivered to the consumer. Where is the artistry of the presentation?  How was I suppose to assemble this dish with six small eggplant slices? This was just plain laziness on the…

I will say the servers are always kind and attentive to the restaurant clientele. In the times I have eaten there, it was always a positive experience. I will begin with the dishes that I ate while there and end with the takeout dishes. I will also give the necessary fixes to a dish if need be. The picture from the online menu does not do this offering justice. The batter coating the fish…
