| - My friend and I were searching for a place to brunch one Sunday morning. We decided on the Purple Onion almost solely based on Kent's 4-star review. I am now left wondering what life choices Kent has made to want to give this place 4-stars.
Let's start with the service. Wait, what service? There wasn't any. Once we had placed our orders the waitress disappeared. After much too long of a wait we were offered coffee and tea refills and when it came time for the bill we just had to get up and ask for it at the counter. Maybe we should have just walked out without paying, I doubt they would have even noticed. My friend and I also noticed this same situation was happening at the table next to us and overheard them complaining about it too.
For my meal I chose the Ultimate Breakfast. It consists of 2 pieces of bacon and sausage, ham, hamburger patty, eggs with homefries and toast. Sounds pretty good right? Well if you look at the picture I uploaded what I actually got was the Saddest Breakfast. The Saddest Breakfast consists of 2 pieces of cold bacon, 2 dried out sausages, a rubbery slice of ham, an ok hamburger patty, eggs, a soggy mess of homefries[1], and burnt rye toast that they charge extra for and don't tell you. Yes, they give you the option of rye toast but don't tell you upfront that there is an additional charge.
[1] I'm a purist when if comes to homefries, french fries, etc. and never put ketchup on them. I put ketchup these ones.
