| - This review is mostly for the restaurant. We came here for dinner because we scored free tix to a Brazilian Party at the concert venue, and we had a $25 restaurant.com certificate for the restaurant.
I'd love to be able to give the restaurant 3 1/2 stars, but the service and management was so exceptional that I'm bumping it up to 4.
We were two couples, and it turned out that we all decided to order the same thing, the Turkey Burger. One of our friends is allergic to tomatoes, and told the waitress that they absolutely had to be left off. We waited quite a while for our food to be delivered, and even though we'd gotten to the restaurant with time to spare before the concert, we were getting nervous. When the food was delivered, you guessed it, the tomatoes were sitting on his burger, and it needed to be sent back. The waitress was completely apologetic and stated that she absolutely told that to the kitchen. We believed her, and it didn't take too much time for his food to come back, this time prepared correctly.
We all agreed that it was the best turkey burger any of us had ever eaten; no gamy taste whatsoever, and it had stuff mixed into the meat. It was a little bit spicy - a good thing! It kicked up the blandness of the usual turkey burger, without the kitchen having to oversalt it to give it some taste. The fries that came with it were crisp and delicious, and there was a little dish of sweet and spicy pickles, something I'd never tasted before, and really loved.
What happened next was totally unexpected: the manager came over, unbidden, and apologized for the mix-up. He invited us to come back after the performance and enjoy dessert on the house. And then the charge for the Mistake Burger was removed from the bill! And that's in addition to the discount from the certificate we had.
The performance was a whole 'nother matter. After being searched and branded, er, banded, we went upstairs where we were ushered to comfortable seats. No standing room for us, with our free tickets! A DJ on the stage was playing some Trance-type music. I normally like this stuff, but I was waiting for "Brazilian" to start. 8:30, 9:00, 9:30, nothing except that DJ and a lot of heavy bass. Nobody downstairs seemed to be moving to it, and I, who normally can't sit still when rhythm is happening, was getting completely bored. The girl next to me said the show was going to start at 10, even though our tickets said 8:30. When 10 pm came and went, and nothing changed on the stage, we all decided that dessert would be much more interesting.
We returned to the restaurant, where our same waitress cheerfully served us delicious Key Lime pie, coffee and tea, and no bill save for the tip we left her, and we left sated and happy.
