Pinky's Review

I had a chance to go eat at Pinky's the other day. This restaurant was opened by the employees of the beloved Penguin. I was excited to go because the Penguin was always a good place to get fried pickles and hamburgers. Upon arriving, it was a nightmare trying to find a parking space. They weren't crowded there was literally 6 parking spots in front of the restaurant. After parking across the street, we were seated. The service was quick and on point. I ordered the fried pickles to give us a chance to look over the menu and because they were always my favorite at the Penguin. Pinky's fried pickles were lightly breaded dill chips. They were great, just the right amount of salt and pepper. As always, they were served with ranch! After looking over the menu, my eye was drawn to the "Kinda Fried Turkey." The description was "herb coated turkey breast on a big bun, topped with melted provolone, bacon, basil, tomato & garlic-parmesan spread." Looking for a tasty sandwich, I thought this was going to be something awesome. Upon ordering the sandwich, I found out that everything is a la carte. This wasn't a problem, so I ordered some fries to go with my sandwich. Once my sandwich arrived I dug in, only to be quite disappointed. The sandwich lacked flavor. With a description like the one they gave, I would have expected a sandwich that was booming with flavor. That is not what I got. All in all, I wasn't impressed with Pinky's. I would probably return but I don't think it would be one of my top choices. Also, with the menu being a la carte, it can get expensive quick even though it is short order food.
