| - Nirvana can be a little touch and go. I've been here multiple times over the years and received varying levels of service and food. They are far from consistent and it shows in their drink specials and food - they make a dazzling Mimosa, but their Sangria is very watered down and not worth the "special". Their Pad Thai is pretty good, their sweet potato fries are like crack and their perogies are legit. But the chicken avocado wrap is beyond meh and their standard breakfast is beyond 'buh'.
I was here twice in the Month of August and service was generally atrocious. The first time our server was inattentive and we had to flag him down multiple times to re-order drinks, and then he later forgot a drink order as well. And this was a relaxed Sunday afternoon with the patio basically empty and the restaurant even emptier.
On my more recent visit, a different server was just as forgetful and seemed nervous...and also had to return because he forgot my drink order. When I ordered food, I was brought the wrong order, and when I politely inquired why I received sweet potato fries as my side instead of the salad she awkwardly and nervously told me that "it was probably a mistake from the kitchen." And then she stared into deep space...After I politely explained that I ordered salad instead of fries, she tried to argue with me. Like what? All she had to do was say "Oh darn, sorry about that, let me bring you out your salad." It's really not that hard. Your kitchen, or server screwed up the order, and I asked like a nice lady would to have the order fixed. After 5 minutes she brings me a plate of salad.
And when we get our bill, she charges me separately for the salad as well as my main order they had screwed up. She charged me a dollar...and I was just like, you know what, this is dumb and I am not even gonna say a damn thing about this but ugggghhhhh, it was tres annoying and not cool.
If you're coming here for relaxing drink on their patio, then you might be in for a good time. Aside from that, Nirvana...surprisingly...blows.
