| - Considered giving 2 stars, but then thought better of it and decided to be brutally honest. Let's get to it.
Lunchtime, mid-day on a Thursday. Joint had 3 people waiting, so not overly busy. Went in with my Groupon for 8 pieces mixed order and 2 waffles. I ordered two regular waffles since I'm not a Red Velvet fan. I also ordered a regular side of Mac-N-Cheese and a drink. After 25 minutes of waiting, the gal says they need to make fresh waffle batter and it will be another 10 minutes or so. Not like I got a lot of choice in waiting. 2 people ordered after me and left before me, so almost like Groupon orders are slighted anyway. Staff was nice and even gave me a copy of Flav's book for waiting, they were best part of visit.
40 minutes after walking in, I am walking out with what should be a fairly simple order and head back to work. Get there to find only 7 pieces of chicken and no Mac-N-Cheese. Waffle was tasty, but nothing special. Chicken has good flavor, but is TOO salty and that overpowers the flavor after a few bites.
Overall, poorly managed, mediocre food and OK service. People say it's worth the wait, but that isn't even close to true. I wouldn't go back...or recommend it to anyone. I wouldn't even buy another Groupon. I'd be surprised if it lasts very long here in town at all.
