Our family visits Governor's often but in our house it is referred to as The Choo Choo Train Place for the model train that moves around the main dining room. The kids love to watch the train move around the room.
On this visit we arrived at about 5:00 with 5 adults and 3 kids. The Shrine Circus had just let out and it seemed that many families were making their way to a good meal. We were lucky to arrive just in time and get seated fairly quickly. During busy hours there can be a wait for a table. I've never had to wait longer than 20 minutes however.
If you read my review of Ruby Tuesday's, you know that I am not a fan of processed food. Governor's does not mass produce a lot of their food in the same way as large chain restaurants. The bread is all homemade including the hot dog and hamburg buns.
My daughter wanted onion rings and that is all she wanted. We ordered a large plate of onion rings as an appetizer to share with the table. She got as many onion rings as she wanted. The onion rings also come with a sauce that I love. My husband and I got meals with salads which are fresh with Ken's dressing on the side.
In the packed dining room, we didn't wait any longer than we expected for our meals to arrive. I had the broiled scallops which were good. I've had better but I have also had much worse. The other family members were also satisfied with their meals.
We visit Governor's with high expectations and those were met today. We will definitely visit again soon. It is a good family restaurant.
My husband paid the bill so I am not sure how much it cost this time. I was distracted by overtired toddlers. Governor's is a reasonably priced restaurant with meals ranging from 8-17 dollars.
