Simply J's: Amazingly Simple Yet Simply Amazing

I have been planning to have a meal at Simply J's fro sometime now. Tonight.... I finally did.

The first thing that you'll notice about the place from the outside is how small it is. But once you get inside, i amazingly sits about about 40 guests, more or less, comfortably. And the place is cozy too. It's got a homey feel to it.

Once seated, I was given a menu which offers surprisingly little choices. Let's see.... More or less there were about 5 starters, 6-7 salads, less than 20 main courses (pork, beef, chicken, fish), 8 pasta dishes, then deserts. Well, that is to be expected from a small and intimate restaurant.

I had a hard time choosing my meal but I think it's because I was looking for some prime cut steaks. However, I finally settled on ordering the porkchops and the taco salad. Service time was about average. When I got my order, I was surprised, again, by their serving. It was a lot. And to think I'm used to eating a lot. Hehehe The salad was amazing. I could have eaten the salad alone for dinner and not mind having anything else. The vinaigrette dressing was savory and not too oily. As for the pork chop, it was a straightforward dish. The slices of the chops were a little bit on the thin side. It has a gravy which I particularly like as it is not too strong that it masks the taste of the meat.

All in all, I was really satisfied with the food. As for the menu, they could have put in more choices. It will eventually. I assume that as of the moment, they are more concerned with serving consistent dishes that is why the menu is scant. The place is 5/5, service 4/5 (they forgot my coke, hehehe), food is 4/5, value 4/5 (it is not a cheap restaurant but the food is great).

nakakaon na ko didto. Hype ra oi. Ok kung sa ok, pero ang ako na order murag kulang pa sa microwave. Yes, mas bugnaw sa tunga kaysa sa gawas: Osso Bucco nako, ang sauce sa tunga lukewarm, pero ang sa gawas, nag aso. Same sa pasta. Ang pasta, nag aso, pero ang sauce, lukewarm. Ang sauce/dip sa chips, gikan sa ref kay bugnaw pa. Baby back ribs served in 10 minutes or less pa from ordering? Ka paspas ba...unless precooked na ni siya. Ang honey mustard sauce, lami, pero klaro kaayo nga topping ra siya, kay wala ka penetrate ang sauce sa karne.
