| - Ate lunch at the new Riverblu today with 6 of my friends. When we arrived at 12:30, were seated at a large oval table, directly under a speaker. The music was very loud. We asked for it to be turned down, but it was not.
The waiter, very young and seemingly inexperienced, stood at the end of the table to take our orders, and we could not hear what he was saying. If this is being billed as a fine restaurant, shouldn't he have walked to each person individually to take their order?
The food arrived after quite a long wait. Was beginning to think they had to send out for it. When it did finally arrive, mine was little more than room temperature. I asked for well done fries, and they were beautifully done, just not hot. My club sandwich (grilled chicken and bacon) was lukewarm also. The food tasted good, but hard to enjoy when not hot..
The atmosphere is casual, I understand that, but while we were eating, the manager walked by and yelled (How's everything "girls")! Somebody needs to teach him to use "ladies", especially to a group of over 70 year old women.
It also took forever to get our check and pay our tabs. Almost 2 hours to eat sandwiches and fries.
The slowness of service, the treatment of patrons, the incredibly loud music and the cold food ensures I will never return.
