I was first introduced to Amy's Place one weekend afternoon by some friends who had been there a few times before. They raved about a number of items that I "just had to try". We were all very hungry so we ordered quite a few items for a lunch.
The establishment is divided into two areas, one is more of a pub atmosphere, and when you walk through to the other side, it is simply a room of tables/booths and the entrance-way to the kitchen. We sat in the 'dining room'. The waitress came over almost immediately as we sat down (4 of us total) and we ordered our drinks and appetizers. There was a huge chalkboard up on the side wall that listed their unique draft and bottle beer selection. There wasn't a huge list but they seemed to have a beer to appeal to everyone's tastes, even an organic and gluten-free option. We ordered the Pierogi Skins, which are cheese pierogis topped with chedder/jack cheese and (we chose) kielbasa, served with sour cream. (The four of us ordered two orders, one would probably be enough for most but we were starving and they were DELICIOUS). I had never had anything like that before, but it was definitely something I would not hesitate to order again.
For our entrees, my friends ordered the Chop Chop Salad (it was definitely a generous size, as were all the entrees), a Reuben, and a Cheeseburger (blackened). I ordered the pulled pork meal (HOLY CRAP IT WAS HUGE). The heaping pile of pulled pork was insane (for me, 3-4 meals worth), plus it also came with mac and cheese and cornbread. The cornbread was very moist, buttery and delicious and the mac and cheese (well, I believe they are well-known for it so, yes, it was phenomenal). I definitely enjoyed the pulled pork, it was so tender it practically melted in my mouth (not even exaggerating) and the bbq sauce was not very heavy but had a smokey sweet taste that I enjoyed thoroughly (I am a Bourbon BBQ fan, personally).
Speaking of the mac and cheese, they make this incredible Buffalo Chicken Mac N Cheese that was just absolute culinary-comfort-food-perfection. My friends shared an order of that to go with their meals. I had so much food, I had to take mine to-go (why waste such good food)
To finish off our meal we ordered an "after-dinner drink" (Beers and ciders had made up most of the meal). We all were in the mood for an Irish Coffee, now, not sure if that is on their menu but let me tell you, that MAY have been the highlight of my experience. If I could have that drink at the end of every meal I have, I would be in heaven. It came in a tall hurricane glass, warm and filled to the rim, topped off with a swirling mound of whipped cream. The taste, temperature, appearance, everything, was just fantastic. Yes, I'll admit it, I fell in love with my after-dinner beverage. I have since asked my boyfriend to go to Amy's Place just so I can get that Irish Coffee again (hopefully soon he'll say yes).
One last note, as we were leaving a waitress was bringing to another table what appeared to be their Buffalo Chicken Nachos. Holy Smokes! Just from the look and smell of it, I recommend that to anyone with a larger group or larger appetite as I intend to order it the next time I stop by as well.
