| - Came here with my mom for lunch after she received a DM on instagram from someone at Dirty Fork asking for us to come try the food (and offered a discount). My mom was interested after seeing their Instagram photos so we came in. As soon as we walked in, we weren't acknowledged at all and were standing awkwardly behind a table of seated guests. Two employees looked at us but said nothing; one of them even walked right in front of us but still said nothing.
Finally, we were acknowledged by someone at the cash register. She said it would be a few minutes until we were seated. There were only a handful of tables taken so we were confused as to why we had to wait when there were so many tables that weren't taken. Turns out, no one thought it'd be a good idea to clear and clean the tables after patrons left. Literally every table was still full of used plates and cups! Then one of the employees tried seating us at one of these tables when I noticed there was a table literally right next to the door that was clean so we told her we'd rather sit there than at a dirty table. She sat us down and then walked away. We didn't even get to place our drink order for almost 5 minutes because she took so long to come back to us.
After we were finally able to place our food and drink order, we got our drinks pretty quickly (I mean, it was a latte and orange juice). I was a bit confused because she placed our drinks down and left without asking if I wanted sugar (which is typical since some people like to put sugar in their lattes). I took a sip anyway and it was SWEET. I like my lattes sweet so I enjoyed it but for those who prefer a latte, well, to taste like a latte, this is not what you'd expect. I think they should have removed the sweetness factor and give patrons the option to sweeten it to their preference because not everyone expects their lattes to come pre-sweetened. Or, they should have asked if I wanted it pre-sweetened or not.
Our meals didn't create any sparks, so nothing to particularly rave about. We weren't happy with the lack of cleanliness and desire to clean up the tables after being used, the extremely slow and lackluster customer service, and food that didn't live up to the hype. Perhaps it was an off day, but the three things I just mentioned shouldn't happen anyway.
