| - Where to start. There is so much potential here. It makes me sad. My co-worker and I thought we had found a great lunch option. Close by, a killer steak and cheese sandwich, excellent fries, decent prices. On our second to last visit we had really great salads, a steak and blue and a steak 'wedge' salad (not sure why it was called that as it was a tossed salad, no 'wedge' in site). We went back literally the next day to get the salads again and lo and behold, everything had changed. No more $2 appetizers and all the prices were around $2 higher. Her salad came out in a whole head of Bibb, or maybe it was Boston lettuce. It looked impressive, but she had a hell of a time eating it. The core was there as well! The steak was delicious and tender as before though, so I'll give them that. I got a burger which was tasty though not cooked as well as I preferred. Too bloody for medium. The delicious fries? Not sure what happened there. I had asked for a box right off the bat knowing I couldn't finish them. (why don't restaurants offer the option of no fries with your sandwich at a cheaper price?) They were old and cold and seemed like they were frozen vs the fresh cut fries we had had before.
The service as others have mentioned leaves little to be desired. It seems they only have one waitress to serve all the tables.
The kicker was the music. While sometimes a little too loud, it is usually excellent. Think Chili Peppers, The Verve, Collective Soul, Oasis..This time...it was Country. And I can't abide Country. I'd rather someone shoot me than make me listen to Country. It should not be an option on the jukebox. Oh, and, close the front door people. Why do I have to freeze my ass off while I'm eating my lunch?
