If you are going to put on your menu that your chefs are so commited to food that they would-"Fight ten Mexicans for the best avocado" you better have such freaking amazing food/guacamole that I won't be able to see straight. I suppose I am partially to blame at the debacle I just experienced. I KNEW better...I told my sister that without a doubt it had to be like the old Bennigan restaurants from the 80's and 90's.
I digress... let me get back to my experience. We were seated promptly on the outdoor patio. Yes it is a lovely area. I ordered their IPA. What I got was definitely NOT an IPA. I asked the young lady who dropped it off if she was sure it was the IPA. She claimed it was and rushed away. The color was about the same as my sisters Moosehead Lager. And when I sipped it, there wasn't a single drop of hoppiness to be found.
We happened to order the guacamole and decided to split their Cobb Salad because sometimes it's nice to eat a vegetable. The guacamole was embarassing. It reminded me of the stuff that comes out of a plastic pouch from the drugstore. Horrible. Next came our salad. It was missing the avocado which was brought to us after we inquired about it. The salad on a whole was pretty decent. The fried chicken Buffalo tenders were cold. I'm assuming because it's on a cold salad? The avocado that was brought out was pale yellow and flavorless...which explains the state of their guacamole. If you're going to boast about it shouldn't it live up to the hype?
All in all our bill came to $44 and some change...huh? How did that happen?! Oh well lesson learned...steer clear of the chains.
