When you have the corner restaurant on Mill and University, you better bring it. With that being said, I think this place has a long way to go and I think it's going to close down before that time comes.
It's a great concept. I can imagine it being a decent place for a night life. I wasn't there for that. I was there at noon on a Monday. Bad idea?
My wife, mom and I ordered the cheese burger. How can you go wrong? My wife went to order it medium rare and got a disclaimer from the nice but incredibly forgetful waitress (I'll get to that later) that medium rare is very rare here. She talked her into ordering it medium. I still stuck with medium rare. My burger came out like a hockey puck while my mom and wife's came out medium well. I sent mine back. My dad ordered biscuits and gravy, they looked good but my dad felt like the gravy came out of a can.
The waitress was a nice girl. I can imagine working there she might get a lot of stuck up and rude clientele. What I don't understand is she would suggest something, we'd get it and then she'd forget it. Eg: side salad for my wife, order of fries for my dad, swiss on my moms burger. All were forgotten and brought out when reminded. There were maybe 2 other tables there and 2 waitresses on duty. She wrote everything down. I guess she had a long weekend. Good thing her personality kept her from getting a full tip.
Bottom line, this food is terrible. The service is terrible. This place has nothing going on for itself. From reading Daniel R's review, I can see that this place may redeem itself in a nightlife situation but I'll never find out for myself.
