JTB’s Pizza & Grill; Scotsville-Henrietta Rd.

I know what you are thinking. Where the hell is JTB’s? It’s the “house” restaurant for Riverton Golf Course in West Henrietta. Golf course restaurant? Blasphemy! These are normally reserved for drunken golf dorks who drive H3’s and ritually ruin your threesome outing by asking “hey, need a fourth?” at the 1st tee. You know the guy, he’s got $4000 set of new Calloway’s but bitches for 9-holes about how much his kid’s orthodontics cost. What an a-hole. Thankfully, there aren’t many people in there on a Thursday at noon besides retirees who woke up at 4am to “beat the rush” and a few hardcore alcoholics who live in a shack out back. I’ll tell you what else lives there…The Trasher! And thrash it did. The Thrasher is their version of the plate and it was as close to perfection as we’ve gotten so far. I’ll hit you with the drawbacks first since there is only one. It only came with one burger. That affects the score but in itsdefense, it was a large, perfectly cooked burger. Now for the purely good stuff; I can hardly contain my giddiness! HOLY SHIT THIS WAS GOOD! Hot sauce was a mix of classic meat sauce with chicken wing hot sauce. It went together like hookers and blow. The mac salad was almost filler free (carrots/celery), well cooked and well portioned. Homefries were the square kind that you could probably find in your grocers freezer but appeared to be cooked on the griddle for a little extra crispiness. They were delicious. To top it off, it came with a large piece of fresh bread that was buttered and garlic’d. That’s what I’m talkin’ about! Several of us were speechless after this one. If you love plates, you will love JTB’s. So ditch your plans to go to that stupid wedding you wife is dragging you to next weekend, grab your clubs, a six-er of Genny, a good buddy, and go shoot 9 at Riverton. When you’re done, plow through a Thrasher and send“golf-guy” my regards ninja-style. How do you get there? Drive to heaven, it’ll be on the right. (Cost - $6.50)
