I keep wanting to like this place. I want to support a local business, and yet....
Last year I took my two boys there after a theater performance (Greasepaint! Excellent!), and after we placed our orders for lunch, I took out our SET game (it's a card game that does not use a traditional deck - great fun). WIthin moments, the server was back at our table. "You can't do that." "What? Play cards? It's not gambling." (Maybe I was wrong, but living here, you start to assume that an objection to something must be religion based). "The owners don't allow it." "They don't allow it? It's a matching game." "No. You'll have to put it away."
Now. I would understand not wanting us to sit and play cards if we'd finished eating and were just holding a table (assuming it was busy). However, this was during the gap between ordering and eating. I KNOW I should've just left then. Instead, I made my kids happy and we stayed for lunch (and ice cream!).
A couple months ago I (foolishly) decided to try again. Didn't bother with the cards this time. The lousy thing this time was the mold on my son's bread. They DID remove the sandwich from the bill, but eish.
I'd kind of like the "Restaurant Impossible" guy to come in here and give it an overhaul. I don't mind the nostalgia stuff, but the place does need a solid going over.
