| - I was here for a Yelp event like the previous handful of reviews, and I am going to have a similar rant/POV as the others. Waitress = fail.
When we showed up, we talked with our server about needing to cash out parts of the bill as people came or went. She said no problem. But then it was a problem everytime someone wanted to leave. When Zack, Mike & I left, we went up to the computer and it took her all of 10 seconds to make out separate bills. Then she complained to us that she had asked if we needed separate bills when we sat down and we said no. Actually, we explained what was about to happen and let her decide, and she decided to have 1 bill which she apparently regretted. Bitterly.
Additional waitress rant: she was just not good at this job. She never asked us if we wanted anything or came by. I had to go up to her INSIDE, where she did not acknowledge me until the OTHER WAITRESS she was talking to asked if I needed something.
Okay, now past the waitress who hates herself and everyone around her and onto the place itself.
This is not conveniently located for me, but if I lived in the neighbourhood it would for sure be a regular haunt. The drinks are regularly-priced and there is a big menu. Of medium-to-low quality food.
There is a HUGE patio here. Massive. It's awesome. They also have a stage and it seems like it would be a great place to see bands. I wish I lived closer.
Finally, the chicken wings. I give them 3 stars. They were crispy, un-breaded and saucy, but I didn't like the sauce. I should have gotten hot instead of medium, because the sauce was ketchupy and weak. The veggies and dip were solid - the standard bleu cheese was a good choice here - because of the mediocrity of the offering, it's best to stick with the traditional. If the sauce was what I wanted, I would have liked these wings.
Overall... I wish this place was better. If it weren't for the great company of the Yelp crew, I would have probably have had a scathing review of the mediocre food and substantially below average staff at this above average patio.
