I know what you're thinking - anyone who orders a steak from Pickle Barrel deserves what's coming to them, but it was New Year's Eve so I felt like splurging a bit.
I ordered Steak Frites, medium. Maybe I should feel bad about joking with my friends about how there's no way that they were going to get the steak right, but when I received it I stopped feeling bad. It was just barely pink in the middle and grey on the outside.
I told the waiter I wanted to send it back. He took the plate but not without telling me that it was "still pink inside". Apparently he doesn't know the difference between medium and medium well.
The second steak I got was medium rare. Still not what I asked for but I didn't mind. And hey, it actually wasn't horrible.
Also, prepare to ask multiple times to get your water refilled! Probably one of my biggest restaurant pet peeves considering how simple of an ask that is...
