We have been going to J Paul's for decades. It's always been good for pub food, with a nice beer selection and great burgers. We knew them for their wings, but I realized that memory goes back to the time when chicken wings were first coming into their own, these days even pizza places do good wings.
We went with a friend, and we had two great burgers prepared as promised, and they were as large, juicy, and delicious as we have experienced in past. Onion rings were huge and crispy, fries and spicy waffle fries were nice sides.
The real surprise is that I took a chance on a pastrami melt. I say a chance because pastrami has undergone a metamorphosis from universally delicious to usually mediocre... the pastrami here was sliced thin, tender and flavorful with strong and correct spices and the texture you hope for. I haven't had pastrami that good in years.
