Nowadays the highlight of our visit to any Swensens Restaurants is not their ice cream sundaes which built its reputation, but for the food. Huh? Granted that Swensens' food items are sometimes hit and miss, such as their baked rice and some entrees like steaks. However they do a good job with their appetizers, pizzas and pastas. We stuck to the safe bets on our recent visit and had a satisfying meal, with no room left for their sundaes.The crispy vegetable fritters $5.90++ were excellent. Lots
The crispy vegetable fritters $5.90++ were excellent. Lots of shredded vegetables and thinly sliced shitake mushroom bound together by a light tempura batter, moulded into square shaped cakes and deepfried quickly into crispy fritters. Rabbit food never looked and tasted this good. The fritters were served with a tangy dip that tasted like a blend if 1000 island dressing and BBQ sauce but the fritters were tasty enough to be eaten on their own without any sauce.These were surprisingly filling too.
The BBQ Chicken Pizza $14.90++ for 9" was another entree that's good for sharing. Crunchy biscuit base topped with chicken chunks, diced bell peppers and onions, topped by mozarella and BBQ sauce. The pizza is cut into quarters when served so it can be shared by 2-4 people if other items are ordered.
It is nice to be given a carafe of iced water for us to help ourselves as we pleased, so we did not have to order drinks from the menu. Great for a casual fuss-free meal; the booth seats are comfy with some privacy so the place is good for chit chat sessions too.
