| - It really does amaze me how a struggling (probably) restaurant owner that took his parent's money to open this place is basically turning away repeat and future business over a measly $25.
My parents found this place on Restaurant.com and invited my wife and I to dinner here last night. Since neither of us exactly live close to this place, it is a very reasonably assumption that none of us would have ever eaten here if it weren't for the Restaurant.com certificate. Anyway, come the end of the meal, we present the certificate and were told that they don't accept them and that we should have presented the coupon before the meal. I hardly ever do that because I always forget but what's the worst that can happen, right? Well the owner spouted off some bullcrap (like we cared) about some lawsuit with Restaurant.com and that they are a scam and basically we are out of luck with the coupon. After the owner told us that we should read directions before doing something, he offered to give us a dessert which we declined because at this point it wasn't about the 2 bucks we spent on the coupon. It was about how this idiot wouldn't honor the face value and doesn't want repeat customer and referral business. However, in the end, he did comp an $8 appetizer. He also got 4 people who will never go back and hopefully many more who will read Yelp reviews and not waste their time in the first place. All this over a measly $25 that he could have easily taken off this bill.
Anyway, if you must go here, here are some other details. Our waitress was very fast and friendly. When we were about to order our meals she spouted off a list of about 5 or 6 menu items that they no longer make for some reason which I thought was odd. They do have a pretty good beer selection and some decent flights. However, our waitress had almost no idea what beer was what when she brought them to our table. I bet she just guessed and made it up. Also, don't ask for a sample of the 4 peaks pumpkin porter because you will be denied because, "all they get is one keg" as told by our waitress.
The food:
* Calamari - pretty good and not overly fried. Not not enough to share with 4 people though. I liked the dipping sauce stuff. Had some kick.
* Wedge Salad - i thought this was excellent. It is a pretty standard wedge but with sauteed mushrooms added. It was a very nice touch and I would actually order it again if I were to return.
* MC's Burger - this was ok. Had too much going on I think. Too many onions, too much sauce, bacon too tough, etc. The fries were nothing special.
If the owner wasn't such a douche I would consider returning if I were in the area because they do have some interesting menu items that look interesting and I like beer. However, he was a douche and there are TONS of other places out there just like it. Perhaps I will return when this place closes and another takes its place in a few months.
