I must admit I've never been a fan of Tres. I guess it was a nice place to have a drink but not eat. Now they've remade their menu into a traditional menu with a few mexican dishes so we decided to try it out.
I'd seen some pictures so I went over thinking catfish and I stayed with the plan when I got over there. I ordered the catfish dinner, onion rings and california mix veggies. I got the veggies over the salad because they didn't have any dressings that sounded good. Lisa got a burger and a salad with mayo with chopped jalepenos in it. We both had our first taste of Garage beer owned by the Kelce brothers but also partially AJ Hawk (ex Packer). Really nice taste, better than most of your standard beers. We received a basket of chips and salsa when we sat down. The chips were okay but I really liked the salsa. Better than what I remember their salsa tasting like. I mentioned I wanted tartar sauce with my fish only to be told they didn't carry it. What the ??? Fish without tartar sauce is just fish. I couldn't believe it, two fish dishes and no tartar sauce, wow. Anyway Lisa said just get some mayo and pickles and chop the pickles into the mayo. We told the waitress and she did try but needed more pickles. Oh she did bring a lemon slice to squeeze in. Lisa's salad came first and it was a nice sized salad but the dressing was too heavy. Then out came the entrees and mine had two delicious looking monster catfish filets and some great looking onion rings. I knew right away I wasn't going to eat both fish filets they were so big. I had a couple onion rings and the breading wasn't sticking to the onion very well, when it did it was really good. Same thing happened with the breading on the catfish. It made me wonder if their fryers were turned off and they had put the stuff in before it was fully warmed up. Seemed like an excess of grease on the plates too. The veggies were typical frozen bagged veggies and weren't overly warm or seasoned. Lisa wasn't real wild about her burger and said she wouldn't get one again. Overall not very impressive. It almost seems like they want one foot in the past and one in the future but the changeover was recent and it may take some time for them to adjust.
