This was our first time there (party of 2). It was a busy Friday World Series evening and the bar area was full, and many tables were full. We didn't have a reservation (not sure if they take them) but we were seated almost immediately. The host/hostess were very pleasant and helpful. Our server, like all the servers that evening, was very busy. She however let us know she was our server and that she would be with us in a few minutes right after we were seated. She indeed was with us in a few minutes, got us waters, and then took drink orders. Our drinks came promptly and she helped us with a few menu questions. After we decided what we wanted, she took our orders, checked drinks and kept us updated on our food till it arrived.
For food we started with the bruschetta which was really good. Better than most. We also had two pizzas - not what we originally planned on ordering but they looked so good that's what we decided to go with.
We got the traditional 12" thin crust, one with cheese, sausage, pepperoni, onions, and mushrooms. The other was the same crust but with cheese, sausage, capocolla ham, black olives, and mushrooms. The crust is indeed thin but with a nice crisp and chew, the sauce is tangy with good tomato flavor, not overly sweet, and they go edge to edge. Toppings were all good - good quality ingredients in the right amounts. Overall they were both very well done/made, tasty, and better than most pizza in the area. It would hold it's own against many east coast and Chicago pizzas as well.
Overall our dining experience was very good and the food was too. There is enough variety on the menu that it would accommodate most groups or families. I would have no problem bringing guests here for a good, fun, casual meal. I definitely recommend Cables Pub & Grill.
