| - I was SOOOOOO disappointed.
We had high hopes based on other reviews and friend's accounts of their experiences.
Seriously, what are you people thinking?!?
First, the hostess/waitress was NOT happy to be at work that day. She wasn't necessarily overly rude or anything, but you could tell she definitely didn't want to be there. (Find a new job if you hate yours so much!)
The popcorn was decent.
I ordered the Dr. Pepper ribs, or some such thing. $12. There were two tiny pieces or meat, which were very tender but VERY DRY. It was hard to (literally) choke them down. The order came with the 2 pieces of meat, 2 bite sized pieces of broccoli, 2 small pieces of their corn bread and some carrot shavings. No other sides, no rice or potatoes or anything like that. I ordered extra rice. It was $1, so not that horrible in terms of price. So, my "meal" was $13. The rice tasted off, the meat was so dry I was literally choking it down. The broccoli was fine, the carrots were not so fine and the corn bread was bland. My rice came with my husband's order, in a plastic sandwhich bag shoved in their serving dish.
If I recall correctly, the boy ordered their version of chicken satay? He was not impressed.
We spent over $25 for mediocre (at best), overpriced food and then had to go SOMEWHERE ELSE for an actual meal.
Also, what is up with the decor?? You have the Nosh & Swig part on two opposite walls, very british-esque feel, then you have a hindu-esque wall with some astro-turf wrapped partitions? Very modge-podged together and took away from the atmosphere.
We will not be back, or be recommending this place to anyone we know - unless of course we hate them and actually want them to have a horrible dining experience.
