I go here for cheap beers and big serving of nachos - if I had a choice there would be no stars, but alas that option is not available - and I should show some appreciation for the cheap food, so one star it is.
I don't expect service.
I don't even expect to be seated - some times if I'm lucky I may score a patio seat in the summer time.
It was a great joint - brought many groups(we're talking 10 or more) of people here to enjoy what little hopitality they offer- and well, no more.
I never had good service but I never expected to be grilled for tips.
Each and every time I went the server had the audacity to say to me, "That's not enough tip"... I worked in the hospitality industry for a long while and I tend to tip at least 10% even for the crustiest service, because can relate. But apparently the 10% tip is not enough for this place. A friend of mine once left a $5 tip on a $25 bill - which is close to 20% - and the waiter said to him, "are you sure?" to which my friend said, "Yeah it's all yours" and the waiter resonded, "No I don't think so. You know we live off tips, right? this is just not enough."
So he ended up with no tip.
I have not been back there since.
There are plenty of great places with great service that also service cheap beer and food - without staff that ask for bigger tip.
