The food is from the same guy who owns Pappo Restaurant down the block. The food at the counter is fairly casual with some salads, pasta and vegetables already cooked in the glass showcases. The deep fried hot dog, Ripper Dog was good, but you really couldn't taste the deep fried part of the weiner. The garnishes on the hot dog, the dijon mustard somewhat drowned out the flavor of the meat. The sauerkraut was fresh and tasted better than it does in a jar. The bun was soft and moist, but kept firm while eating the dog. The fish and chips were pretty standard. The fish was fresh and was definitely better than the frozen fishsticks that I am use to.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6170162090710173515.post-39014519042923015232009-01-13T21:33:00.000-08:002009-01-13T21:33:00.000-08:00McGee's what a great bar and restaurant.

I have gone to sports heaven. The food tastes pretty good too. Everything deep fried there is awesome. There are two different kinds of french fries: shoe string or wedge cut. I prefer to eat shoe string. The burgers taste good. The chicken wings are okay, but messy to eat with your fingers. The Sampler Plate is great because it's all things deep fried: zucchini, mushrooms, french fries and chicken wings. I didn't even talk about the beers yet. There is a wide selection of beers to pick from. Pitchers are a better deal for those heavy or thirsty drinkers compared to a pint. I would definitely recommend this place to any sports fan, deep fried food fanatic, beer drinker or burger lover.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
