  • Unfortunately, it's time once again to drop my rating of what used to be one of my favourite restaurants. If this happened at any other place I'd give it a 1 star and permanently avoid on principle, but because PoaF have pretty much the best barbecue I've ever tasted it'll get a flat 3, accompanied by a giant frown of annoyance. So what happened? Did the prices increase like they did at Loving Hut? No. Food quality dropped? No. Still cramped as a sardine tin inside with less than a snowball's chance in hell of getting a seat at lunchtime? Well, yes, but that isn't the reason. This time it's due to false advertising. Several weeks ago they came up with the idea of a loyalty card. Buy 5 meals, the sixth is free. Here's my photo of it (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/825nC-s-cQG6Hsul5Gm2cA?select=sSvKMJtwYvgp3PuNafyBsA). Seems pretty obvious how it works, right? Well, last time I was there I reached the free meal marker. I usually get their "Smokin' Meal" menu item - two types of meat, plus two sides and half a sausage. However when I tried to claim the free meal the counter girl informed me that they don't give that particular meal out as free because, quote unquote, "there's so much meat in it". Which equates to about two fistfuls of meat, half a sausage like I said, plus maybe eight ounces in canned baked beans and sweet potato fries. She then tells me that I can get any of the other items on the menu for free, or else she could give me a free drink OR, "say.. three dollars discount". The card didn't say "excludes Smokin' Meal". They brought me there six times and told me the card was frickin next to worthless. Get another menu item for $7 for free, or get $3 off my smokin' meal which is only a couple of bucks more than the items they classify as free? Wow. I'd have been happy to show up here forever and pay their asking price for a meal. But the fact that they pushed off a loyalty card on me then told me to GFY when I tried to claim on it is rank as hell. Fail, lose two stars, Seacrest out. Oh, Seacrest back in for another ten seconds. Went there today, bought the usual, girl didn't offer me another card or mention the concept at all, left. Still delicious; still pissed at them. Seacrest out again.
