I wanted to love BarChef but a few things fell short.
We arrived around 10:30-11 pm on a Friday night. It was packed but we were told that the wait for two people was around 15-20 minutes. The hostess told us that we could go have a drink at Rush Lane and she would call when a table was available. We had a round of drinks at Rush Lane. After 30 minutes or so and no call, we decided to walk back over to BarChef. The hostess was sitting another party of two (which I would told that I was the only party of two on the list when I initially put my name down). The hostess acknowledge us and stated that we would be seated shortly. Twenty minutes after being seated, we received a call saying our table was ready! Really???
The drinks were good. I loved the presentation of the Mad Men. This cocktail was good when it finally arrived from the kitchen! It took about 45 minutes to get this drink after we ordered it! We kept being assured that it was coming. It was very frustrating to say the least. Great drink, but not if you have to wait this long.
Four Seven Two was very good and made at the bar, so no issues here. It was my favorite, but I also liked that I didn't have any problems getting the drink in a timely manner.
Skip the food items here. We tried the truffle potato chips and sliders, which neither one was good.
The atmosphere is really nice and upscale. It's sad that the service from start to finish diminished our experience.
