| - Was here a year ago, was pleased then with service and food. But I now tried it again this past week, but a totally different impression. First, the hostess who seated us was not warm and welcoming, made it feel like a chore that we had arrived. Really? Honey, you're the first impression of a place, so you already set the pace on a bad start. We sat, got menu, and ordered drinks. Have to say happy hour prices and pour were both very good. Menu is a hodge podge of things, but some basic information that should be there on the menu is not. Example- you can order ribs, you get the meat portion only but must order any sides individually. That's fine, but the menu shows no prices for sides-- are they $2, $5, $10 each? Also, they only have one burger on the menu, it actually sounds very nice and delicious, but what happens if you just wanted a plain basic burger-- not there. And for that one they do have on the menu, I live in NYC, one of the most expensive places in the country and I can think of 10 places in NYC where the burger price is lower than what they offer here. Once again, the menu does not give you information-- is it a 1/4 lb burger, 1/2 lb burger, or a patty the size of something you'd find on a slider? For $11 for a burger, it better be damn big, and it better be some very prime beef. Ahhhh the special for that evening sounded good, but once again-- no info! Does it come with any side(s)? Needless to say, after the lack of hospitality from the hostess, to realizing that i'd have to quiz our server on every aspect of the menu, it just felt like too much of a challenge. Drink was good, went elsewhere for dinner. Was warmly greeted, had sensational service, and had every question that I could have ever asked already addressed in the menu.
