| - This place is so inconsistent... some visits have been really good and others not so good. I really do wish these guys would up their game!
Yesterday's visit rated only 2 stars because there were issues with both the service we received and with the food. For starters, it was a bit busier than normal because of the Groupon special. When we arrived, we were told the wait would be 15-20 mins, but it turned out to be 30+ mins. However, we decided to wait, because by the time we got in the car to drive somewhere else, we would have burned that much time anyway.
So, when we were finally seated, the waitress came by pretty quickly to serve us coffee and take our order. She left the carafe on the table, which is nice, but sadly, she did not check on how much coffee was in it, because when we were ready for a refill, the carafe was empty. That wouldn't be so bad, except for the fact that our server disappeared and did not come back to check on us. In fact, our food was brought to the table by someone else and then she finally reappeared. It took her a while to fill the carafe and return it to the table.
Now, for the food... it was a disappointment all the way around. David ordered an omelette, which was cold and pretty flavorless. Plus, he said it was a litte runny from being undercooked.
I ordered one of the specials - gingerbread pancakes w/side of scrambled eggs and chicken sausage. The eggs were cold. The gingerbread pancakes were cold and did not taste at all like gingerbread. They simply tasted like whole wheat pancakes. In fact, I asked our server if they had brought the correct plate because not only did the pancakes not taste like gingerbread, they were missing the side of cranberry compote. Which she said they had run out of (it would have been nice to know that upfront).
I'll give them one more chance, but if its not a good experience, I may just stick to Le Peep instead.
