I haven't been to this location since the remodel. I gotta say, I miss the carousel horses and the airplane fan. It was so whimsical and fun. I was pretty bummed out when I saw they got rid of them. I am an old man....it's not often I get to relive the things in my childhood I loved. My childhood memories were squashed like a bug on the windshield of life. *le sigh*
The carousel horses and fan weren't the only things they got rid of. Apparently they took the staffs personality and fun attitudes with them. This place used to be full of smiles and bubbly humans. Sometimes they were so happy, it made me wanna slap em. Luckily I no longer need to worry about a possible assault charge. No one was rude by any means. But they certainly weren't happy or inviting. Our server was direct and to the point....no frills or extra personality. Can't say I was or wasn't a fan. I just was.....
Ordered the Chips with "more guac than ever" and salsa. I don't know how much guac they had before, but it must have been enough for a 1/32 of a teaspoon per chip. Literally we had about 1/4 cup of guac. I could use that on one chip. Come on people. The worst part? The chips came out stale....so we sent them back for replacement chips. The server didn't hesitate or complain and it was back lickity split.
Split the Pepper & Smoke burger no bun and steamed broccoli. I loved how they actually brought us two separate plates and sides. The burger was very good and the steamed broccoli was cooked perfectly.
The restaurant was clean and we got sat right away. Can't say I'd go outta my way to come back to this location, but I'll be back at some point.
