| - Stopped in today for lunch. Haven't been for a very long time - years, since I visited. Ordered the $9.99 'Power Lunch' I think it was called. One meat, and two sides. Ordered Pulled Pork, dirty rice and broccoli. I also ordered an Arnold Palmer as my beverage. I think there were a grand total of 15 people in the entire place (very telling on a Wed, at 12 noon-ish, for Lunch). Food came very quickly (good), but I immediately noticed that I got a grand total of, maybe, three ounces of pulled pork, two slices of overdone garlic toast, rice and broc. My issue was with the amount of pork. First, I do not ever require a ton of food for any meal, so this is not your typical, 'I didn't get 2 or 3 meals out of my meal' comment. What I'm saying is, the serving of pulled pork was much too small for any means. Why didn't I ask my server about same, you ask? Well, I really do not go out to lunch with the idea that I will need to call out problems like this. I have no desire to be a restaurant operations consultant. The food was o.k. - nothing special - Chipotle sauce with very little chipotle. An overiced, overpriced drink from a kid sized mason jar mug for $2.99? Seriously? Basically, I'm done with Smokey Bones - and so are most people, as I can see the place was almost entirely empty regardless of the many large nearby office buildings. Adios.
