| - My lady friend and I went to Touch Supper Club for a show hoping that they were serving food. However, the extremely apathetic bartender at Touch informed us that they only serve brunch on Sunday, no dinner. Not to be denied, we left the show to find somewhere on West 25th we could get some eats.
We walked down Market Avenue, past the Market Avenue Wine Bar (I made their web site like 13 years ago), past the Flying Fig, and across 25th to Town Hall. We entered the cafeteria style side and I inquired about getting food. The helpful girl behind the counter told me that we could order food on this side or receive service on the other side, so to the other side we went.
Now, I don't go out very often, as in, out to clubs. I go out to dinner, but not out to drink and socialize. I have friends who are promoters and I sometimes go to their shows to support them, but I am more of a quiet dinner type. This place is the opposite of that. It seems like a bit of a pick-up spot, where 20-somethings go to be seen and hook up. There were many people here. There's nothing wrong with that, and I saw plenty of beautiful girls so I have nothing to complain about.
The service we received here was exemplary. We were seated, received menus and ordered our food in no time. The ambitious menu included lots of information about what was Vegetarian, Gluten Free and what was available as Gluten Free if desired. I had the Hamburger and my date had the Chicken and Black Bean Nachos. Both were excellent. The Hamburger came with fries that were seasoned and tasted great. I was a little worried that the food wouldn't be good because of the chaotic surroundings, but the chef clearly cared about my meal, and I appreciated it. Also, when the check came our sodas were not on it! Awesome! Two great meals at a trendy, popular spot with good service for less than $25! I will come back.
