| - Headed to Prosperity on a Friday night for dinner and drinks. I hadn't heard much about Prosperity, so didn't really have any expectations going in. Unfortunately, I probably won't be going back.
PROS
-Casual atmosphere. The place reminded me of a home basement with a built in bar. Wasn't fancy, so no need to dress up.
-Grey Gardens. I was a big fan of this drink. I've had similar tasting drinks to this, but I thought the vanilla vodka was a nice touch.
CONS
-Flavorless food. I got the fried chicken dinner as my main course. The chicken was bland, the mac and cheese was bland. The collards were okay, but when the greens are the best thing on a plate of comfort food, that's not saying much.
-Slow service. I try to take into account a lot of things when I put service in the 'cons' list (business of restaurant, number of waiters, etc). The restaurant was not full and at one point, I saw at least 4 people working/standing behind the bar. It took forever for our appetizer and equally as long for our entrees. My fiancé had to go up to the bar to get another drink for me, because no one was coming by our table. There was just no sense of urgency or hospitality.
-Price. For 3 drinks, an appetizer, and two entrees, our total was $73, pre-tip. For the quality of our food and service, I thought this was outrageous.
BOTTOM LINE
-Everything was underwhelming.
