Reasonably priced, heartily satisfying comfort fare make this unassuming Watertown spot an ideal cheap-eats destination. Eric Grossman on
10-27-2005
The Scene
Located on a quiet side street near the Arsenal Mall, Strip-T's tiny, unassuming storefront won't turn any heads, but its affordable, homemade cuisine will. Though the simple, warm-toned dining room contains about a dozen tables, the restaurant's enough of a secret that there's rarely a wait. Friendly servers update the chalkboard of daily specials and add to the welcoming environment, as does a bargain-basement list of quality, easy-to-drink wines.
The Food
Strip-T's kitchen, which handles a strong catering business, cooks all that it can from scratch (onion rings this thin and crisp couldn't come from a wholesale distributor). Satisfying entrees include smoky marinated-chicken kabobs and grilled ginger-scallion salmon. Dishes are served with a flavorful Caesar salad and a choice of crunchy fries, saffron rice or cheddar mashed potatoes. Homemade cookies are a perfect capper--the chewy chocolate chippers are to die for.
