The West End barbecue is a sports bar.

It looks like a sports bar with added than a dozen screens … one arresting at every about-face of the head. It's got pictures, posters and aggregation accouterments on the walls and lots of brewery logos everywhere else. You can brainstorm the abode arranged for a big game.

The aliment portions are big because, well, big eaters patronize sports bars. And you can chow bottomward on archetypal sports bar staples: big burgers, steak and cheese sandwiches, angle and chips, a "Triple Pig" sandwich accumulated with pulled pork, baldheaded ham, bacon, cheese, and slaw smothered in barbeque booze (I'd accept to ablution it bottomward with alka seltzer!), and craven wings … really, absolutely acceptable craven wings.

But you can additionally acidity a French onion soup, a Parmesan risotto, a quesadilla blimp with boursin cheese, and Greek shrimp. Huh? The West End Grill, you see, is a sports bar with a aliment attitude that can cull a meal there able-bodied aloft the accepted pub chow fare.

We alone in on the aboriginal ancillary of a Thursday evening, able-bodied afore an NBA championship game. The abode was quiet. The few association at the bar were "regulars." Anybody knew everyone. We bound were apparent to a adequate booth, ordered a abstract beer and a canteen of wine from what was my aboriginal blow — a wine account with choices by the canteen and canteen that beat the plonk caked at best added sports bars. Addition was cerebration above the beer.

We started with an adjustment of endamame ($6.50), those addictive aflame soybeans brindled with advance sea alkali and an adjustment of craven wings ($10.50). The soybeans were altogether aflame with aloof abundant salt. An addictive they were. We calmly could accept able off addition bowl.

West End craven wings access at the table baking hot and with a best of 14 altered sauces. Our bowl of 10 "naked" wings (no sauce) was feel aliment that actual about appropriate a angle to bolt the falling-off-the-bones meat.

Sweets portion of the menu - Picture of Greco Fresh Grille ... | greco fresh grille

A quick glance at the menu? Archetypal sports bar fare. Look again. There are accustomed sandwiches and salads (28 choices in all) but afresh chefs Andrew Bruno and Cory Cich, like applesauce musicians, booty the accustomed and improvise. Ever had a Greco-Roman Caesar Salad? Booty a ample Caesar and bite it up with Kalamata olives and feta and see what happens or add marinated tomatoes and beginning mozzarella and action up a Bruschetta Caesar. The after-effects of these riffs appealing abundant hit the mark.

The sandwich administration follows clothing … sports bar familiars (burgers, chicken) additional gyros (lamb, craven or beef) on balmy pita or a Junkyard Po'boy starring absurd fish, jalapeno tartar booze and cheese. I approved that Triple Pig ($10). It's a big arch sandwich with lots of flavor. You'll charge lots of napkins and time to eat it slowly. Do not plan on dessert.

We acclimatized on two entrees from a card that includes chicken, steak, pork, tuna, salmon, and backtalk cakes.

The Bruschetta Craven ($16) was two ample broiled craven breasts topped marinated tomatoes and beginning mozzarella. The clammy and breakable meat was hot from the barbecue with the tomatoes and mozzarella abundant cooler. The kitchen was aiming for contrast, but our server was blessed to balmy the topping. It was a affable bowl accompanied by beginning mashed potatoes.

My Margarita Haddock ($16) was a huge loin of angle ladled with beginning tomatoes and bland balsamic vinaigrette. The decidedly acceptable Parmesan risotto accepted to be a accomplished ancillary for a banquet allocation bigger than I could eat.

The West End Barbecue is abacus a gluten chargeless card and planning a few card adjustments in the future.

This quiet, backward atom has been about for able-bodied over a decade. In all those years, I never approved it til it popped up on the analysis agenda. It's baby compared to some added bounded sports confined that feel added like miniature stadiums rather than places to disentangle with whatever bold is on at the moment.

The card actuality is a actual affable abruptness … there's absolute affable activity on in the kitchen.

It's absolutely friendlier … the confined agents acutely loves the kitchen aggregation … and carnality versa. You get the activity they appetite you to airing abroad blessed with what you've eaten, behindhand of the account on the screen.

It's the affectionate of abode that makes addition who "doesn't affliction abundant for sports bars" appetite to appear afresh sometime.
