Fun times in the South Side!
I decided to have a get together here for a birthday. I called ahead to see if they take reservation...they don't, not even for a party of over 20. I called once and the hostess said that someone would call me back. They didn't. I attempted to call again and they just said they don't take reservations. I think this is a mistake on their part. If you have more than 20 people you essentially need one server dedicated to your table. I don't think they can properly plan for the evening.
Moving on...I arrived early, 5:30 ish to drop off balloons and determine if they would be able to accomodate us. The hostess looks me dead in the face and asked if I had a reservation or if I called ahead!! WTF!! Seriously!! I looked at her and said did you jsut ask me what I think you asked me? She repeated herself and I laughed. I mentioned I tried to call several times and was told they don't take reservations. LOL!!
I mentioned that we would be back in about an hour and that guests would start arriving around 7:30pm. They kept trying to seat me inside but I kept mentioning that we chose to go to this restaurant because you could sit outside!
They truly have a great outside seating area and it is right on East Carson street!
They added some tables to an area and provided us with great service. I honestly couldn't have been happier with our waiter, MIKE!! Super nice guy with a great attitidee. He was very accomodating. He remembered what everyone was drinking even as we moved around our little area. I can't say enough great things about the service we received from him.
I gave them 3 stars because they don't take reservations and make it difficult to accomodate large groups. They also give you alot of hassle and don't seem to want to be real accomodating.
