Randy’s Bistro

My family and I happened to be on a lazy Saturday afternoon drive when we found Randy’s Bistro & Styrene Emporium. Set in a residential neighborhood, the outside beckons you with neat, contemporary design and a welcoming paint job set back from a well-​manicured landscape. Parking is at a premium, so we parked in front of a neighboring building, despite the looming threat of a downpour.
Randy’s is operated by it’s owner and his gorgeous and charming wife, and so the service, although attentive, was sparse. We were actually welcomed inside and seated by one of the other guests. In addition, due to the limited menu selections, we had to bring our own deviled eggs as well as our own beverages and table service. However, the dining space inside is well decorated, cozy, and comforting, which makes up for the self-​service experience. Music is provided throughout the establishment and is in extremely good taste, with blues and jazz permeating ones ears in a perfect accompaniment to the meal.
Let’s get down to brass tacks. The meal was outstanding. As is customary, much of the food selection was made up of items other guests had brought. From salads to deviled eggs, three types of baked beans, stuffed peppers and an extremely wide variety of desserts, we were not disappointed at all. The main course consisted of gourmet mass market sausages roasted over a wood fire and served impeccably on Randy’s finest china. An additional main course offering was wood roasted chicken breasts, marinated in an Italian vinaigrette and cooked to moist perfection. I chose the chicken myself, which melted in my mouth like memories of my first girlfriend.
In addition to gourmet food cooked in a home-​style atmosphere, Randy’s Bistro & Styrene Emporium also offers a unique entertainment experience to complement your meal. For a small fee (usually a well-​timed joke or compliment to his wife will suffice) patrons can take a tour of his establishment. On display is a selection of plastic models, crafted expertly by the owner and arranged on display for the delight of his guests. Consisting of mostly automobiles, but with a smattering of science fiction and aircraft subjects also, Randy’s glassed shelves will awe and inspire guests of all ages. Indeed, during our visit, a local modeling club convention was in progress, and Randy’s Bistro & Styrene Emporium was perfectly suited to the occasion.
In summary, I would highly recommend a visit to Randy’s Bistro & Styrene Emporium. The food is impeccable, the service is excellent and makes one feel right at home, while the plastic modeling display is a perfect cap to one’s evening. I give it 5 stars.
