It's been a few years since I have had dining at ANY Black Angus....not because I am not a fan but more so because there are fewer and fewer of them in my local area. This week there happened to be some coupons in our mail so Rosealyn, who really likes BA suggested it as a spot for this weeks dinner.
We stopped by on a Wednesday evening, there were four of us for dinner and we went fairly early. Sadly this is the Geriatric hour so the median age was at least 65 as they blue hairs need to feed and be tucked into bed well before 7 or they turn into pumpkins or something worse.
Our waiter was Chris. Young, energetic but a bit disconnected and mechanical in his mannerisms, for what ever reason I will never know. He took our order for both food and drinks and was advised of our desire to use the coupons which BA was offering.
Rosealyn and Phil ordered the $39.95 Camp Fire Feast for Two. They chose the Wagon Wheel Sampler Platter as their Appetizer to share which had Crispy Fried Garlic-Pepper Zucchini, Buffalo Chicken Tenders, 2 Loaded Potato Skins and Shrimp Cocktail. I think that should have been a meal in and of itself but there is more to come. Then the main dish was Prime rib and they shared a Big Mountain Fudge Cake for Dessert which taken home as they were completely full after all food listed above.
Margaret eats like a bird so she had the Loaded Baked Potato Soup then a plate of the Deep Fried Garlic-Pepper Zucchini with Cucumber dipping sauce which was too much for her to finish. I opted for the $15.99 1/2 lb. Prime & Mud dinner. This was Prime Rim with Sweet Potato Fries and a Caesar Salad followed by a huge chuck of Sky High Mud Pie. My Prime was small, looking more like something on a steak sandwich but served rare and flavorful as it should be. Horse Radish sauce and Au Jus were also offered in the side. The fries were crispy and the salad quite large. Since there was so much food I also asked for my dessert to-go and then ended up leaving it on the table as we departed...a major disappointment on my part.
Overall it was a good food experience. The food was flavorful and at the right temperatures and I would certainly go back. The waiter could have been a bit more friendly and less preoccupied but you cannot have everything. If you are going to take advantage of the Happy Hour pricing, REMEMBER its ONLY available in the bar and NOT in the main restaurant.
