Indiana Restaurant Review |
Bronko's - Hey,
It's Pizza |
Seems everybody
in Crown Point loves Bronko's pizza. So many times when my family
and I ask friends where they would like to meet for dinner, they
immediately say Bronko's. And this office is certainly known to
get Bronko's pizza for takeout at a minimum of ...hmm, let's say... two
times a month. |
Bronko's not only
has pizza, it also has a fairly full menu of sandwiches, soups, and
other lunch- and dinner-type fare. But I really have to focus on
the pizza with this review. It's what I've mostly consumed from
the restaurant by far and what the place is definitely known for best. |
Bronko's Pizza
has a nice mix of sauce, just-right crust, and good toppings. Hey,
it's pizza. It's good. |
But there's one
thing Bronko's pizza doesn't come with: serving utensil. We asked
our server for one, but we were told that they were not able to provide
them anymore since they kept getting stolen. I couldn't even think
of a response. The comment jolted me back to episodes of stealing
salt shakers and ashtrays with my high school friends on our lunch
hour. You know, when I came to eat at Bronko's that night, I
really didn't plan on swiping their spatulas. |
Okay, time for my
typical stuff. If you've read any of my other reviews on this
site, you'll know that I can rarely resist the calling of commenting on
a restaurant's decor. The decor for Bronko's? Here
goes... Bronko's qualifies as one of those local places that
everyone thinks is great, and apparently they think they're doing
somewhere between great and just fine. Why are these places unable
to take an objective look at the way their restaurant buildings
look? I know that sometimes appearances are not important when it
comes to dining (Am I really convincing myself here? You're right,
probably not.) and that improving and maintaining the aesthetics of a
restaurant are costly. Still, I think that some surface changes
can be made for the better. For example: take down the
battered swinging saloon doors to the entrance of the bar section,
refill the soap dispenser rather than offering your own squeeze bottle
soap from home, fix the bathroom doors, update the walls and their
accoutrements. |
But, I know...
stick to the pizza. Again, I say, It's
pizza, It's good. Yet if I were to represent the majority of
people who dine in the Crown Point, Indiana area, I would have to say
it's revered as the best pizza in town. People really like
Bronko's. |
Still, I don't
think it would hurt Bronko's restaurant to do a bit of splurging on the
appearances of the restaurant, or heck, maybe some serving utensils for
its customers. |
Bronko's is located
in the Jewel shopping center on North Main Street in Crown Point,
Indiana. |
