| - Unfortunately, the pretty dismal service we received kind of trumped the food, which was okay - but nothing really special.
We came in on a Friday evening. We started off by seating ourselves as requested. When asked for our drink orders, they were out of both of our first choices, including Schlitz which surprised me. When I ordered a Point as a second choice, I was brought a Point Pale Ale - not really what one thinks they are getting by ordering a "Point (aka Point Special)," but perhaps that's just me. They were also out of the first appetizer we ordered (pretzel roll). The waiter (bartender? couldn't tell) was clearly not very experienced, did not mention any specials which we later overheard, and also flubbed my dinner order (no cheese on my cheeseburger, oh well).
As for the food - the sweet potato fries were quite good, and my burger was cooked correctly to medium and tasted fine - though pretty boring without the cheese, since it only came with a tomato slice and some shredded iceberg lettuce. My companion didn't have any complaints about his burger with smoky bleu cheese. For our sides, the potato salad was appreciated but the coleslaw was pretty bland. Overall there just wasn't anything that will have us coming back, which is disappointing because I was so ready to like this place.
