| - A few friends and I visited the Crooked Cue on Tuesday evening who had been before, but it was my first time. I cannot say enough about it.
While waiting for my friends to arrive I browsed through the beer menu and was incredibly happy with the large selection. My friends arrived and our waiter came over quickly to take our orders, he was helpful in a selection for us all. Since I hadn't seen these people in awhile we were doing a lot of catching up instead of paying attention to the menu, so I hate to say it but we were those slow, chatty, annoying group. As a former waitress I can tell you this is very frustrating and usually the server will just say they'll come back in a bit and you don't see them for quite awhile, which is entirely understandable. We finally made up our minds and ordered.
The food came, two had burgers with fries, and I had the chicken tenders with sweet potato fries. The burgers had juice dripping out and my friends could not stop raving about them. The chicken tenders we're crispy outside and so moist and tender in, and the sweet potato fries were amazing, even better was the chipolate mayo to go with them, and so many places screw it up but this with perfect.
As an added bonus, I did not once see anyone just standing around, every single employee was doing something at all times. The restaurant was incredibly clean, as were the rest rooms. I have worked in 3 restaurants of different kinds, and I wish I had co-workers that were more like the employees at The Crooked Cue.
We stayed at our table for awhile while on two of us had a few more drinks, but or waiter still kept an eye on us. When we were finally ready to leave, I offered to pay the whole bill, and I left him a generous tip. He looked, his eyes went wide and asked if I was sure. I said I was, and he thanked me countless times. I wish I got his name so that I could request him for my next return.
I made sure to email the owner and let him know what a wonderful experience was provided, and he replied quickly, thanking me and letting me know that he would tell his staff.
This was an experience that I have not had at a restaurant in a long long time. I can't wait to return again and would highly suggest it for anyone.
