Restaurant décor can make a big difference in your dining experience. I love it when the décor is intriguing. I have been in several where I get up and browse around just to see more of the artwork on the walls. TJ Elliott’s offers just such a collection.
Contrasting with the bold Tuscan gold, deep greens and reds is a collection of framed black and white photos. They appear to be family photos. Some of the more recent ones contain pictures of faces I recognize of the owner and his brother. Some of the older ones have a man who looks like Jimmy who must be Jimmy’s father. There is a family grouping of a grandma and proud parents with a little girl in her bridal First Holy Communion dress and veil. Another photo shows several Italian fellas around a restaurant table, Lucky Strikes butts cramming the table ashtrays after a long business lunch. A photo of two men by a gasoline pump show us how unbelievable cheap our fuel used to be. I had to get up and look closer.
Next time you’re in, stroll down the long wall and enjoy these photos. Are you amazed at the gas price in that picture too?
