| - I was disappointed in this place because it looks like a cool spot from the outside. It was a Sunday night - Labor Day weekend when we stopped in. Visiting from out of state, we had been up early and spent the entire day in Sedona, so when we got back in town we wanted a more low-key place to get drinks and some food. Searching online we saw that this place specifically boasted that it had "50% off late night eats after 11pm" on Sunday nights. Perfect.
We arrive and it is dead. Ok, it is on the outskirts of the party scene going on further downtown, so maybe that should've been expected. The hostess awkwardly asks if we'll be drinking tonight. We sit outside, they have the music bumping pretty loud, and the couches and oversized chairs are actually pretty comfy... oh, and then there's that sloppy wasted girl sitting one lounge area away from you giving her boyfriend a lap dance and dancing around their table like a stripper. Really?
Anyways, we order food (sliders and chicken "lollipops") and a couple drinks. The sloppy girl and her man eventually leave, and 45 minutes later our 2 small appetizers finally come out. It wasn't til about 30 minutes after we ordered that our waitress came up to apologize and say she was sorry the food was taking so long, but that right as we arrived they had actually closed down the kitchen, so when we and the table who arrived shortly after us ordered, they had to get everything in the kitchen back out. Seriously? I know it's not the waitresses fault, but why would you not mention that when we ordered. Also, why are you going to advertise your special on Sunday nights being "late night eats starting at 11pm" when apparently you decide to close your kitchen down at that same time? I understand when it's a slow night eventually someone has to make that call and say you're going to go ahead and close early... but if that's the case, mention it when we get there instead of making us feel awkward and like we're burdening you ask you clean up everything around us and basically shut the place down waiting for us to get finished eating. The food was ok, but the 45 minute wait spoiled it.
