"that was really one of the worst culinary experiences of my life, and that involves recognizing some miles on the road that the drive thru did not give them a ketchup, and a minute after that it was the completely wrong order. we came to dinner later in the evening. we had no dinner. 20 minutes after sitting, a server finally recognized us, and strongly implicit in which section we were to drop the ball. no big thing, it was to close, it happened. we were asked for drinks orders, and the server ran off, 15 minutes before the regular kitchen closed. we are never asked if we wanted something else, although the restaurant served half an hour pizza. almost 20 minutes later we got our drinks and could order at least one desert. Drinks were badly made and not with menu descriptions or ingredients. the gloomy was average, but we didn't get a spoon for another ten minutes, and then we saw the dorks started, the waitress with the spoons. until then we had not been asked how we liked anything. When we were finally the desert, it became clear as we had eaten it. then we had to wait 20 minutes with wallets and cards on the table before someone came back to pay us. I can understand some of these problems when a restaurant was busy, but it wasn't that bar was crowded, but otherwise the place was almost empty, there were more employees than patrons. And with so many things was just inconvenient. Why, if they notice that a table sits for almost half an hour without water, would they not fly it to the manager as a problem? Why shouldn't the manager who walked around aimlessly notice this whole time? that was not a problem to be too busy or too short, it was a problem, simply not to care for, because very basic efforts could have prevented it from doing everything. the hostess could have told the server that they sat a table. the server that finally came would have the bases as wondering if we wanted to eat some. the bartender could have asked if they were too busy. the food runner could have noticed that we did not have the right cutlery and make sure it was treated. by all this, the manager would have done the basis of observation and corrected a problem before it got worse."

"This is the first restaurant that I?ve reviewed where giving five stars was not enough. Not only did we have amazing food, not only was the atmosphere cool and comfortable, not only did the bartender nail my Old Fashioned making it one of the best everbut the staff treated us better than any other restaurant we?ve ever been to. Our wait-person was Nija and she was wonderful.Friendly, outgoing, funny and efficient. Such good service that made us feel so welcome that I felt like we were coming therefor years. Nate was the Sous Chef who visited us several times to make sure everything was done right and to our satisfaction. Well, needless to say, it was. The food: Let?s start with my breakfast sandwich which was bacon, scrambled eggs, arugula andcheddar on an everything croissant. I inhaled it. Fantastic. We had homemade tater tots which now has spoiled me so I don?tknow if I can go back to the usual ones you get. Fresh and crispy on the outside and nice and mushy on the inside. My daughterhad the fish and chips which were top notch. My wife went for the grilled cheese made with apple butter. The slight sweetnessthat the apple butter added put it over the top and made it much better than your ordinary grilled cheese. For desert we hadthe deep fried Oreos which were amazing. The experience was one of the best we?ve ever had, maybe the best. Get your butt overto this restaurant as soon as you can."
