| - One who knows me would think this would be my favorite place ever. Student discount, huge portions, the ability to make that huge portion even larger, a bonanza of ingredients you can pick from, tons of sauces. All of the above to me is like Mecca.
So you fill yee bowl and then they grill grill grill. Yeah, the bread is nice but I've never found the food particularly good. It just kind of tastes empty. First off when they give you your bowl its so hot you seriously cannot eat it and taste it for 15 minutes. This might seem like a good thing to be getting the food immediately but it's more frustrating than beneficial. The other ingredients again just taste kind of bland--possibly from sitting on ice all day.
The sauces, which is usually my favorite part of any meal, have never done anything for me. I have had them mixed, separate, added before, added after. They simply aren't very good. I imagine they come in huge packages which contributes to their mundane flavor.
If anyone has ever been to the restaurant Fire & Ice Grill in Boston or California it's very similar but better food there albeit more expensive because it's unlimited. I find it funny that the servers here tend to get very confused when they really don't have to do much. Never approach a table with your hands in your pockets, that's just weird in any situation.
Somehow the concept of you putting together your own dish together seems to be a much better idea in concept than in reality. I guess if I was starving and it was lunch time, I could take this.
I did just remember one good thing though--making up ridic names on the name place-mat sticks they give you. That actually probably is the best part.
