Not Your Average Joe's Burlington

I think I have been to a Not Your Average Joe's once, but it was soo long ago that I barely remember it. Since they were gracious enough to send me a birthday voucher for $15 off, with no restrictions, I headed off to their location in the nearby Wayside Commons in Burlington.

Since they are in the wayside commons, there is plenty of parking.

Plenty of bar seating, and booths at the windows. They got really busy at lunch today.

There are several dining areas, all separated.

Warm freshly baked Foccacia with a very tasty dipping oil arrives promptly. Linen napkins with very nicely cutlery.

I started out with the AHI TUNA WONTONS (13.29). "Choose from japanese chili-spiced crispy wontons or chilled cucumbers, topped with rare-seared sesame-crusted tuna, sweet soy, pickled ginger and wasabi aioli". Crispy wontons of course! This was excellent, and I really enjoyed the dish. The wontons were crispy but not very spicy, and the aioli was also mild. I really like pickled ginger, but I'm not sure what it does here. It's normally used to cleanse your palate between different pieces of Sushi.

Meatloaf or Jambalaya? My waitress recommended the meatloaf, so meatloaf it was. BBQ MEATLOAF (12.99). "Grilled meatloaf made with beef, pork, smoked mozzarella, veggies and herbs, with a tangy bbq gravy, mashed potatoes and herb-roasted carrots". The carrots were quickly exchanged for a very well seasoned spinach side. The mashed potatoes were good and made from real potatoes. The meatloaf was very tasty and light but had a glaze that you needed a very sharp knife to cut. The gravy was good, but a tangy bbq gravy it was not.

The exciting Wayside Commons. Not sure what will happen with the space that Bonefish Grill occupied next door.
