Saints

Hi,

Glad to find this group and be more informed on our dining scene. I am new to posting, but I dined at a new-to-me restaurant Monday and want to share.

I went to check out the new Naked Pizza store Monday at 139 Breckenridge Lane and found out it's not yet open. I was hungry and not familar with the area, but then I saw some balloons out in the front of Saints Restaurant. I went in and was greeted by a friendly person who suggested they were now open for lunch.

I sit in a kinda dark dining area looking over the menu for something to order. I had pizza on my mind, but, I ordered a half turkey sandwich and basil tomato soup. While I was waiting, I saw some pizza come by me that looked very tasty. My food comes out and I am thrilled because it is so fresh. The soup is yummy, with fresh croutons and nice herbs. The shaved turkey is on a beautiful, soft warmed roll with slightly melted cheese. The bread makes/breaks a sandwich for me. The dressing was on the side and I was happy to slather my sandwich as needed. My lunch was so fresh and good, I will certainly return, especially to try the pizza.

Welcome to the Forum, Helen! Please chime in with your tales of great food and drink in the Metro.

My wife and I, along with a few other friends/relatives, play trivia at Saints every Monday night. We have found the pizza, calzones and salads to be surprisingly good. We expected "bar food" and this is tons better than that. These guys know what they're doing. And the prices are reasonable and the beer is cold.

And...if you're into trivia, Craig Dolgin puts on a nice game. It's from 7-9, you pay $1 per person to play and the winning team gets the cash. Nice way to spend a Monday evening.
