| - Let me get this straight, Kelsey. I give your restaurant $20 and you give me a meal that I could've made if I just walked across the parking lot and bought all ingredients in Price Choppers? Wish you had told me that BEFORE I gave you my money.
I went to Kelsey's for dinner over the weekend, assured by a friend that it would be good. After ordering dinner and taking it back to my friend's condo, I stabbed her for her error (it was a plastic spoon but it was a violent stab nonetheless!).
Kelsey's is one of those restaurants you might confuse with Casey's, Pickel Barrel, Jack Astor's, etc. In my head, they are all the same restaurant and seem to be on almost every corner in the city. The fact that it was right behind my friend's building made it very convenient to order food and eat it at her place. We had a waiter (I think) offer us complimentary sodas while waiting. I thought that was nice. Still, the atmosphere and special touch are the two stars holding this review up.
I ordered balsamic grilled chicken with mashed potatoes and "seasonal vegetables". I put those in quotation marks because for Kelsey's, that means green beans and JUST green beans. I guess they are the only vegetables that are in season! The balsamic grilled chicken should have been called plain old grilled chicken. It also came with a sauce that had no taste. The mashed potatoes were good but I could've made them myself and have had better at other restaurants.
Next time you feel for Kelsey and her restaurants, kick yourself for being lazy, suck it up and go home to cook the meal yourself.
