| - I will preface this review by saying that we really wanted to eat, but were not given the chance........ Also, I worked in the restaurant business for over 17 years, so I know how things should work.
I made an online reservation for 7pm on a Saturday night. We got there 5 or so minutes early. Place was very busy and trendy looking. The hostess said she could not find our reservation and we might have to wait twenty minutes. I asked why there were multiple empty tables if we had to wait twenty minutes and she replied that those tables were for reservations!! She apparently had a change of heart and lead us past many. many empty tables to sit us in a tiny corner.
The tables on our sides were seated 10 minutes or so after us. One server came and took care of a table (seated 10 minutes after us). I tried to get her attention when she finished with them, but she looked right at me and kept going. Another server walked towards us, turned her back and took the order of the other table (she seemed to know them). Again, I tried to get her attention and she walked right by. us.
By now, we had been there over 25 minutes and I was done. As we left, we walked by the hostess stand and she looked right at me, but never said a word. Not a good way to run a business.
With all of these great reviews, I really wanted to try, like this place.It seems like a very trendy, 'Scottsdalish' kind of place. Good luck to them staying open...
There is a new BBQ place called the Hammered Hog that will b opening soon on Cactus and 32 Street. we went and ate at their place after leaving BL and the food was great. Friendlier and great beer prices. And they acted like they wanted us there. More my style.
