3 Aug 2019.... First time earing here, great experience! Tonight there was a Beatles tribute band playing, they sounded very good, enjoyed their tunes. My wife had a craving for some fries, so we ordered a basket of steak fries as an appetizer. Normally we have to complain to restaurants about their fries being undercooked, flimsy, cold.... Tonight I had to complain that the fries were too hot :-) ** kidding - no complaints. Every restaurant should learn how to serve hot fries. Must be rocket science that others haven't figured out yet. Also... They serve Heinz ketchup. Yay! Restaurants that serve me cr@p Sysco commodity ketchup never see me again! We ordered a couple of sandwiches for dinner, grilled chicken and Cuban sandwiches. We enjoyed them! Both sandwiched were pressed down and toasted... Many restaurants that offer Cuban sandwiches don't understand what "pressing" means. Even at some Cuban restaurants when I tell them "press it a little longer... I like it a bit crispy" they treat it like more rocket science. Sheesh... Here at Dexter's the pressing was perfect and the pork was fresh and thick. My only complaint was that the side of yellow rice and black beans was much skimpier than it should have been. My plate had too much white space showing. I tell restaurants this all the time... DO NOT SKIP ON THE SIDES ESPECIALLY THE STARCHY ONES WHICH ARE SO CHEAP TO BEGIN WITH!! Rice, potatoes, pasta... all are SO INEXPENSIVE which makes it so easy to use as a crowd pleaser. I received a small saucer of rice and beans. They were good, but a small cup-of-soup sized bowl would have been more appropriate (however this is not worthy of deducting a star because overall we had a nice evening). And our server was great! She was attentive and pleasant. We had enuff to eat and each of us even brought home half a sandwich. I would of eaten the whol thing, but I was getting the "you've had enuff, piggy" eye from my wife :-) We will be back!
