| - Decor- AMAZING! Love the design and I was impressed with the space. Open, welcoming but still really modern. Doesn't feel like a "Vegas" bar at all.
Bar- Nice place to sit and have a chat over a glass of wine or beer.
Staff- a tad flighty, but experienced enough to get your drinks to you.....just don't bother them with food orders and god forbid you have to send something back!
There were several of us eating dinner at the bar....and every single one of use sent something back.
Food- well now. I loved the menu! So many great twists on there that I wanted to try...but I settled for a wedge salad and tater tots (easy, good items to compare apples to apples with as I had just eaten another wedge a day or two before)
Wedge Salad- MASSIVE, there is NO NEED for 1/2 a head of lettuce on the plate. At least provide a 1/2 order or small plate for those who want to enjoy the rest of their meal without wasting so much! Decent blue cheese.
Truffle Tater Tots- how do you screw up tater tots? A total waste of the truffles- mushy, undercooked and no flavor whatsoever. I was embarassed for them and embarassed to have to send them back!
Friends Ate:
Tomato and Onion Salad- WAY WAY too many onions! Like a half of an onion versus 2-3 slices of tomato and DRENCHED in balsamic. Not edible- waitress/bartendress didn't think to ask if it was ok and didn't notice only a few bites were eaten.
Chicken (veggies on the side)- Chicken was RAW on the inside. Ugh. Sent back and was so over cooked when it came back it was rubbery. Veggies over cooked. They took this and tater tots off the bill.
Chicken Picata- A staple in many kitchens. A request was made for extra capers in the sauce for the chicken and as a side dish, some sauteed mushrooms. Guess where they put the extra capers? That's right- in the mushrooms! None on the chicken! When it was pointed out- they dutifully took the plate back and put capers on the chicken- but did nothing about the mushrooms. Blech!
Another person with us got food poisoning from the creamed corn the week before (and daringly came back- but didn't eat).
Gentleman next to me at the bar (not with us) also had issues with his order- so much so that he coverd the plate with a napkin, left money and just walked out.
I know this place had opened recently and there are kinks to work out- but some of this is just ridiculous. Do some test runs, get some feedback BEFORE you open ot the public. You will still have issues, but you will not have to comp so many items and put off so many people on their first experience.
As I mentioned, the menu looks fantastic, and the atmosphere is really intriguing....so I really would like to come back. Will I? For drinks yes, and I would try to eat something to see if it has changed. It is about 45 minutes from me though- so when? I wouldn't make it a point of trekking all the way over there just for this place, but if I was in the area...........yes.
