So, I'm sort of torn.
I don't write too many reviews, and usually when I do it's because I feel that there's a need to call attention to a place. And clearly, having visited Skillet on its first Saturday (during an OSU game, admittedly, but that's no excuse) and not found a line out the door, there's a need to call attention to it, because it's not getting the attention it deserves.
On the other hand, if I play any role in lengthening the inevitable line out the door, then that will mean that I'll have to wait longer for my food. My perfectly roasted French fingerling potatoes with burnt ends and a hint of rosemary. (Take a vegetarian side dish and add pork... kinda my style, I have to admit.) My mouthwatering Porchetta sandwich, with garlic, roasted pork and skin, herbs, and, a twist, wild fennel pollen. And having to wait for that food---that would be a very bad outcome indeed.
So, although I'm reluctant to admit it, because most of you eager get-up-and-go types get up earlier than I do... it's good. It's very good. And the price is reasonable, too: my sandwich cost $7, the potatoes $4, a bowl of black-eyed pea minestrone (also very tasty and quite hearty on a fall day) $4.
Check it out. Just... not all at once, okay?
