I read that this Chompies was going down hill and we experienced this last night. The restaurant was not crowded on Mother's Day which was a sign.
There were lots of employees standing around, picking each other up, chatting, etc. but not doing anything else. Our waiter forgot what my daughter ordered for her drink and ignored my son, who had just arrived and had not ordered yet.
The food took forever to come, it was freezing in the restaurant and my husband needed more coffee but none was offered. We asked for a refill on my daughter's drink and for more coffee. There were only 2 place settings for our party of 4 and we had to ask for more.
The mashed potatoes were awful. Neither one of my kids ate them.
Two of us had omelets which were good. My son had a latke burger which was really good and my daughter had chicken and Matzo balls (dumplings) which she wasn't impressed with.
One of the reasons we went to Chompies was for the Mother's Day gift of a slice of white cake with raspberry filling. Found out at the end of the meal that it only came with the Mother's Day dinner which was $19.95. Our waiter actually giggled when he said I couldn't have it.
As we were paying he came out with a piece of the cake. Said they had lots of it so it redeemed him a little bit. Overall, a very disappointing outing.
