It's easy to see why Lucy's Seafood Kitchen is named the most popular restaurant year after year in The News' readership awards. Janice and I go out for a restaurant supper about once every two years. I'll take the blame for that as I'm a homebody of the first order.
When you are having your biennial restaurant outing, you certainly don't want to waste the event.
We went to the Lucy's in Erin Mills to celebrate our 24th anniversary and got just what we expected: good food, good service and a good price. Two seafood dishes, a glass of Chardonnay for her, a glass of Merlot with my Jambalaya, and a bill of $45.
My only reservation is the noise level, which was way too loud. The place was packed on Monday night but it still shouldn't sound like a bowling alley. At least they didn't crank up the music to drown out the babble.
All in all, a very nice night out. Maybe we could go increase our pace to one night out a year.
I even got Janice home in time to enjoy the Monday Night Football pre-game fisticuffs.
