| - I really want this place to be good. Since Toby's shut down, the East Valley has needed another country bar, aside from Denim. Once again, disappointment.
We went there before the Eric Church concert to grab some drinks an appetizers. We figured a Tuesday night a couple weeks after the opening, things would die down a bit. We walked in and there were a lot of people waiting, but about 1/3 of the tables were empty. We asked how long the wait was and the hostess said an hour. I looked at all the tables and she said their kitchen was havign trouble keeping up and they were slowly letting the tables go.
I've never been in the bar business, but has nobody worked in a bar before this place??? Is it reasonable to think aside from a few minor hiccups, this place should be operating at full capacity? Again, I may be naive to the process, but this seems like incompetence is in play.
The interior is really cool and it looks like it will be a fun place when the original hype dies down and you can go in there to actually enjoy it. I hope this turns into a more adult spot with less kids because there were kids everywhere when we went.
I hope to be back and change my review to 5 stars, because I really want this place to work, I just dont get the inefficiency and incompetence in play right now.
