| - Disclaimer.. This place is new and has a lot of issues to work out...
Okay, heres the deal.. I went to this place on recommendation of another business, as i was looking for a location to hold monthly meetings. I was looking both on behalf of a Fortune 100 company as well as a local 501C3..
I saw their facebook page, and thought the restaurant looked rather inviting.
Our business associate planned to meet us there and alerted the manager to our meeting.
We arrive at 9am
EMPTY. We thought they were closed...
At first impression, the restaurant is warm, inviting and very eclectic..
So we had high hopes.
That was the end of the positive experience. The manager had stepped out... And was not there for our meeting. She showed up later.
The service.. Very slow.. The wait staff are novices that probably have never served before.. Ever. They couldn't get orders right, as they didn't listen attentively. This was an ongoing issue.
After a considerable amount of time, out comes 3 of 4 orders. We wait...
And wait. Order 4 comes out wrong.. And is sent back.. We wait.
It comes out, and is still wrong. All the food is cold.
I ordered a cheese bacon and sausage omelette, side of crispy bacon.
I got an overcooked egg " pancake " folder over with undercooked bacon
And sausage, no cheese. The crisp side of bacon was limp and undercooked.
Its as if this was the cooks first gig ever after graduating automotive school. AND they said HE is going to train the new cook.
If you go for ONLY coffee and a nice atmosphere, you might be OK. Its hard to screw up coffee.. But then again..
They an to open at night as a " Persian " restaurant. Maybe they will fare better although they have an identity crisis. I will never know as i don't plan to repeat the experience.. You can have a more satisfying experience with an egg McMuffin at MacDonalds..
The manager finally showed up for the meeting and talked to us as our food turned cold..where is the quality control ?
As I wrote on the beginning.. They are new.. So if they get their act together as a wait staff, find a good cook, get some semblance of quality control at the pass, it may turn out to be a viable spot.
There is one review I read that was a 1 Star.. That guy was dead-on right.
I would question the validity of the other reviews.
So D Coffee Shop.
WE will not be bringing business to you. We shared a lot of ideas, and I did tell you 1 Star in person..please take the feedback, otherwise your restaurant will join the others in that area to shutter quickly.
