I keep wanting to like Hello Bistro more than I do, especially considering how much my wife does. But every time I leave I'm stuck on the fence. The concept is pretty straight-forward, and the prices are the main attraction.
Considering there are usually 15-20 people working, you'd think the system would be a little more seamless, but something is always out of sorts. Orders get mixed up on the line, ingredients are missing, and I've generally dealt with some unpleasant employees.
The burgers are hit or miss, but the fries are right up my alley. And for nostalgia-sake it's nice to get the grilled cheese with tomato soup every now and again, and throw in a milkshake for good luck.
For a cheap lunch that keeps the wife happy, I can't go wrong. I'll be back, but hopefully the concept as a whole continues to improve.
