Olympic diner

Basically diner food

This was a chicken parm with sweet fries.. It was so much food I actually had left overs for the next day. I wasn't too crazy about it because I expected more from this place. Especially since I'm in love with their sister restaurant (Blue Lagoon). 

 

I haven't had a root beer float in years, I think this was the highlight of my night!

 

This was a really good milk shake. Even though I had my root beer float, I kept drinking his shake! 

 

Chicken caprese panini with a twist. It had grilled asparagus, grilled bell peppers and a thick layer of Swiss and provolone I believe. I was eating more of that than my dish!

I think Calamari is my new go to appetizer. it's like the beta test before I figure out if the entree will be good or not. I'm usually right and was happy that we ordered these. I love different types of aoli's and when a place does it right they deserve recognition! It was some type of herb lemon aoli that blew me out the water. I'd def have this again!

 

Now for the entree. Do you see the size of this thing? It's the size of two heads I swear. I love chicken Parmesan and they know what they are doing. The pasta was aldente as it  should have been and the sauce to pasta ratio was excellent. Need I say more?

 

My guys dish was the shrimp scampi with angel hair pasta. The shrimp were more like prawns. Nice healthy size creatures that were packed with flavor. Yes I'd

 order this when I venture back...

  

I never had peach cobbler before and i wondered why after my first bite. It was warm and chewy and crunchy and sweet and cold all at the same time. Now I'm not a huge fan of sweet treats but this is on the list of things I'd def eat again and again. 

In all honesty, I'm not a big chain restaurant eater, but this one I really recommend visiting!
