| - Stopped in today for happy hour. I wanted some drinks and food. I was expecting the same service and menu I get back home in Nashville. I was slightly disappointed when I realized things were not the same, but I ate here anyways.
First thing first, although we were seated promptly, it took forever for the waitress to come by. Thankfully, when we were seated, we were given a menu, so when the waitress did decide to drop by, we already had our meals picked out.
I always order some form of chicken pasta. Here they have a Three-Cheese Chicken Penne dish that usually pretty awesome. I went with that, luckily, my friend wanted the same thing so we decided to just get the 2 for $20, that way we could share appetizer too. Also, because it was Happy Hour, we ordered Mozzarella sticks along with our meals.
The Sticks came out 1st. They looked great. I really appreciate that the cup for the marinara sauce has gotten larger. As opposed to how the cup used to be, they actually gave us almost enough sauce to get us through all of the Mozzarella Sticks. Progress!
Once we were done snapping pictures and dug in, we noticed that not everything is as good as it looks. The sticks were warm but the cheese wasn't melted. They were very hard to eat. They tasted like a fried box covered in marinara sauce. They gave us like nine, I was hoping at least one would be worth the money. Nope, all terrible. The sauce was the best thing about them. Sad!
A couple minutes later, the Buffalo flavored Boneless wings came out. I must say, I'm a sucker for their wings. I'm not a big wing person, UNLESS, they're boneless and are being served at Applebee's. I love them because they're always cooked to perfection and seasoned with just enough spices to keep me coming back.
I hate anticipating food that's usually incredible, but when I hype my friend or myself up to go get it, it's disappointing. With that being said, those damn wings were horrible. If it wasn't for the ranch dressing, I would have flipped. It's sad that I have to mask dishes with sauces. The wings were overcooked so they were hard to chew. We only got a hand full of them but they looked like the cook chopped a wing up and made 3 out of it. Don't get me wrong, we did have a couple large wings but most of them were really small.
Just after the wings were dropped off, the entrees came out. Same as the other dishes, the meals look cool, a little dry, but never the less, decent. Once I got the waitress attention because she always on the move, I asked for more Alfredo Sauce. It took her a few minutes to stop back by to say that it will be right out, but by that time, I had already tasted the Pasta. It was cold and disgusting. Well, the noodles were cold, the chicken was warm and the plate was hot. All messed up! Not to mention the serving wasn't enough to fill up a 6 year older.
I told the waitress that the entrees were terrible and she said that she was sorry and offered to bring something else out. We declined because I don't like sending food back. I told her that we will just pay for the apps and she took the plates and walked off.
She came back out after 3 or 4 minutes and bought the check. She had discounted the entrees and the Mozzarella Sticks were half off, being that they were on the happy hour menu, but the Wings (also on he Half Off Menu) were listed at full price. I asked the waitress, once again, after I got her attention, if she had made a mistake. She told me that because we didn't purchase a beverage, we couldn't get the Happy Hour prices. I was confused because she had discounted the Sticks already. She then told us that she had done us a favor. She said that the Sticks were not suppose to be discounted either.
Subsequently, I asked for the manager. I wasn't opposed to purchasing a drink but I didn't like the way she just sprung things on us, and then talked to us as if we couldn't afford our meal. I'm not sure if that was her intentions but my friend and I both felt slight offended.
She went on and on about how she was doing us a favor, although we had already asked for the manager. She then took the receipt and said that she will see what she can do. After about 5 minutes, she came back out with the receipt. Said that the manager had said that he would add the discount this one time, but next time, we would only get the discount if we purchase beverages. I said that it won't be a next time and then she repeated her statement. I gave the woman a $20 to get her away from the table. She brought the change back and we left. I never did see the manager.
I know that it's not her fault that the food was horrible or that the rules are setup how they are, but she can control her attitude. She was just too snappy for my liking. Plus she was a terrible waitress, she couldn't even keep our water glasses full.
I've added this place to my "You better be lucky I wasn't starving" list.
