| - Visited Don & Charlie for two consecutive Saturdays for dinner, the first visit was 4.5 stars and the second visit was only an average 3-star, rounding up and down? Hmmm
FIrst visit - Very impressed by this museum-alike restaurant with all collections of baseball, hall of fame, jerseys, baseball bats, or you name it, all about sports! The manager or a guy in nice shirt got us a free cheese bread on the bar while we were waiting for our table as it was our first time, the cheese bread tasted almost like the Chicago-styled deep dish cheese pizza. Our order of medium rare prime rib and the BBQ pork ribs arrived pretty quickly after order is placed and the food was delicious.
Second visit - We come back with a group of 6 the next Saturday, reservation was made for 7pm and just about 10 mins wait and we were seated. Waitress was an older lady who took care of us very well when took our ordering, however, one of the broccoli sides (and it happened to be mine) came out way over-cooked, you can so easily by the almost yellow-ish color when there was a comparison to a well-cooked one, and the taste was just...(don't even want to describe). When asked for a replacement, I was told that it has to be re-ordered, not sure what that means, but sure, i'll wait for another one...5 mins later, 10 mins later and.... until we finished our dinner, the broccoli still did not show up... the waitress had a few other tables and seems very busy, she came only once to check and left right after, I didn't even get a chance to 'chase' my broccoli...I guess it was good that 'extra order of broccoli' did not show up on the bill... And it took way to long for her to understand how to split the bill even when we wrote it down by credit card and amount... So be sure to tell your waiter or waitress to split your bill before it arrives!
p.s. This is a popular restaurant, parking seems to be filled very quickly, you might need to park along the street side or the bank's parking lot across the street...
