| - The first thing we saw was a line of empty concrete benches outside the door and a "please wait to be seated sign". There is a reason why the sign is outside - there is no room inside for waiting. We're not sure if you're supposed to automatically park yourself on the benches or go inside first to sign in or what. The interior feels like a 'pop-up' restaurant, where they went to a dollar store for supplies, others may find it unique or kitschy.
Since it was our first time here, in we went. A few moments looking around for someone to catch our eye, a gentleman filling water glasses beckoned us to an empty table. Since our placemat was our menu, we began looking for what to order. A waitress came to our table a few moments later, and indicated she had a table of 3 and a two top would be available momentarily. She used a lot of words, without actually saying she wanted us to vacate, and she certainly didn't indicate where we were supposed to vacate to. When I ask if she was trying to say that the other waiter wasn't supposed to seat us and did she want us to move, she changed her mind and told us to forget about it. I'm sorry, but this is incredibly poor hosting skills.
We ordered an omlette with mushrooms, onions, ham and american cheese, which came with a side of potatoes, also ordered were the cheddar jalapeno biscuits with sausage gravy.
Let me say that I LOVE biscuits and gravy - but will only order them if them come with sausage gravy because I detest the flavor of wet flour that restaurants serve as "country" gravy. What I got could in no way be considered sausage gravy - it was country gravy with a piece of a link added on top of a biscuit. The concept of this is awesome, the reality is awful. Thankfully my eating companion didn't find them as gross as I did and switched meals with me. The omlette and potatoes\american fries, were fine.
Between the rude reception from the waitress and the less than stellar food, we won't be returning.
