Located in the small plaza with Thrifty Ice Cream, The Bar and Corleone Pizza is a family-owned restaurant, JJ Burgers & Salads. Seating is outside on the terrace on high-top tables. The menu offers Burgers, Tacos, Quesadillas, Skewers, a Club Sandwich, Nachos, Salads, Seafood, Wings and Snacks. The son of the owner was our server and when he arrived, he adjusted the large standing fan to make sure that we would be cool during our meal. He asked us what we would like to drink. I asked for a Diet Coke and an ice water and Beth chose a LimonadaMinerale. A few minutes later, I watched in making the lemonade from scratch, including actually squeezing the lemons for the drink.

For our meal, Beth chose a Beef Burger with no cheese. The burger was huge and came with crispy French Fries. I decided to try the Chicken Skewer to be consistent with my high-protein diet. I was not expecting what arrived. Two huge skewers of chicken with onions and peppers between the groups of chicken. There was enough food for two or three people. The skewers were placed on top of crispy potato wedges, which because of my diet I could not eat – but tasted and they were great. I took a skewer and a half home with me for two more meals.

The food was good, the service was great and the seating was pleasant, especially as the sun went down.
