I recently went to the 102nd Avenue and 125th Street location of Original Joes and of course I ordered a Caesar. It wasn't anything particularly special to look at, but very much a traditional presentation with the Collin's glass and all. The garnish of the dual lemon lime combo was nice, and something that I always appreciate. The pickled bean was a nice touch since it adds the flavor, but it was just thrown in. I'm sorry but I'm a stickler for design and presentation and how things look, and the flimsy plain white straw just brought the level of the drink down a bit. Go for the thick black straw, or since I never use a straw to drink Caesars, just get rid of it.

However, this one definitely packed a punch in the flavor category. It was spiced extremely well, and was exactly what you would want if you're looking for that Caesar you crave. Nothing new or unusual, just the traditional way it was meant to be made, and done really well.
Priced at $5.25 the price is pretty usual, for a pretty usual Caesar.
Taste 4/5
Creativity 2/5
Garnish 3/5
Bang for your buck 4/5
Total 13/20
Verdict: If you're looking for great flavor at a reasonable price, go to OJoes.
Hey... flavour is the first thing on their website.
