Az I Eat It....
Pappadeux's Seafood Kitchen, on the northbound I-17 frontage road, between Peoria and Cactus Rds(Phx, Az.)
It was another Guy's Night Out, and this was a long-overdue return to a fine establishment. Specializing in Cajun-style seafood cuisine, I don't think that there is anything on the menu that is of less-than-superior quality! The portions are plentiful, the prices appropriate, the atmosphere comfortable. I had the Australian Lobster Tail(10oz.; $29.95), with Jambalaya, instead of Dirty Rice and Broccoli. Great choice(but you must insist!) Others tried the Big Bay Platter($25.95; Shrimp, Caribbean Lobster Tail, Dirty Rice, etc.), and the Stuffed Shrimp Montage($19.95).
Then came the desserts($6.95) - overly-healthy portions of several varieties of cheesecake, bread pudding, banana pudding, cakes, and the BEST Creme Broulee in the Valley - exquisitely presented - FRESH, and accompanied with several varieties of fresh fruit(blackberries, blueberries, raspberries, strawberries - and a tasty cookie wafer!) I've made the mistake of spending more(for a lot less satisfaction) at Red Lobster!
Pappadeaux's is a national brand, with varied cuisines, and several other names across the southwest, Illinois, Ohio, and Georgia(Pappasito's Cantina, Pappas Bros. Steakhouse, Pappas Bros. Seafood House, Pappas Bar-B-Q, Pappas Burger, Pappas Grill Steakhouse, and Yia Yia Mary's Greek Kitchen.) Though I've only been to the Seafood Kitchen in Phoenix, my experiences tell me that I'd have no reservations about trying the others!
