| - We were introduced to this place via a groupon coupon. Now this place a solid 3 stars because of what the resturant wanted me to "think" of their place vs what it actually is. And although the service "did their jobs" and the food wasnt really bad, this place didnt leave me to say Yes! I want to come back. Think of a movie that previewed itself as awesome! You watch it and thought well that sucked, i thought it was going to be better. The movie wasnt a total waste, but defiantly NOT a buyer or resee movie. Thats here.
Originally we wanted to eat there another day. We wanted to come an hour before they closed, but they insisted we make a future rsvp. "Oh", I thought, "must be packed!" Ive been to my fair share of packed resturants and so I was quite excited.
Our rsvp day, we we running behind and called about 2 hours before our scheduled rsvp to move it 30 minutes later, the lady asked me to hold. You can hear her asking someone if we could move our rsvp. The conversation between them made me feel they were trying to make it work to move my rsvp. Inside my head Im thinking, "wow this must be a VERY busy and hit hopping place! Im even more excited." Inside Im praying please say yes.
Now on the groupon, yes dont laugh at me. That should have been a huge HELLO, your not dealing with a hip hopping place hahaha, ok now on the coupon it stated a dress code. Again another feel of how oh la la this place must be. Im making sure we look our best. And we get there and......
ONLY one other party is there! Wtf?!?! So this resturant made me feel they were so busy that it had to be discussed on weither my 30 min rsvp change can be accomplished?!?! Two other parties showed up after us, but ultimately there was plenty I MEAN pleanty of room!
Ok so the hostess was nicely dressed, spoke fast, but got the job done.
The food.....um good. Cant knock it because really it was something my palette wasnt use to. So Im not sure if the food was bad? Or I just dont like the style? The steak was good, but it didnt have too much flavor. Which meant I needed to have some type of sauce with it, but there wasnt any to have. Like I said, I was full at the end. Pick through what I liked and left what I didnt like. Was it even worth the $70 price? Nah I wouldnt pay for that again. I would rather go to another steak house and spend $70 and be COMPLETELY happy with what I ordered.
So the staff was dressed in a cow boy outfit, weird cause well it just didnt match the restaurant. The resturant tried to be fancy, but the buffet bar just doesnt scream dress code. My fiance mention to me the service to serve your steaks is much slower here than.....crap forgot the name of the resturant he mention. He says you dont have chance to sit and get full as what this restaurant was doing between servings.
The service was plain. Not bad. They did their job. But boring. There was no personality, no nothing to even make me come back for at least the server. You know the restaurants you like just because the service was awesome. Well these guys arent it. At least today werent.
Sorry guys, but today will be the last time I come here. Just not worth paying that (even cheap) groupon price to re eat here, let alone even thinking of paying the price its "suppose" to be.....
I RECOMMEND TO CHOOSE ANOTHER STEAK HOUSE.
Ok so here the weird part. Now this part makes me think about the service again on what i just gave a 3 star for. Hmmmmm should i change it to a 2 star????
At the end of the meal the hostess charges us the tax. Our "groupon" meal was covered but we pay for the tax. Cool no biggy, but just a warning for people. The she puts on the ticket "gratuity 15% just a suggestion 17.47" something like that 17 something she was asking. Then in my head i was laughing. Now I belive in gratuities. Oh yes ! In fact my normal tipping is 20% because its easier to figure and if I really like you I throw more, but for this? Hahahaha. Ok so on their website (a non coupon offer) in general it states $43.99 a person. Times 2 is 88, so even 15% of that is only $13.20. So how did she come up with such math. Ugh who knows?!?! Let me let these people be aware......YOU CAN EASILY GET $20 BUCKS IN TIPS IF YOU WOULD JUST HAVE PERSONALITY. AND NOT BEG FOR IT ON THE BILL.
