| - Upon entering, the hostess asked our party of four the type of seating we preferred, we opted for a table. We were taken to a 6 top - fine with us - perhaps no other 4 tops were available. Immediately we could see that the the table was filthy. I saw an employee wiping a nearby table and I quietly approached her and discreetly asked her to please clean our table. She, very pleasantly, complied but also felt the need to tell us several times that it mustn't have been cleaned properly the evening before. We were thankful that she wiped the table for us, unfortunately it was still remained pretty nasty :(. I am not sure what the use to wipe the tables with???
Food wise, baked potato soup was fairly bland and not very good. The turkey avocado club was a big hit, as were the fries. The nacho's with beef added we also pretty tasty. The double burger was dry and not very edible.
Unfortunately when our server checked back to see if everything was okay, the club sandwich person quickly responded "yes, great!", poor double burger person was unable to express her disappointment. She had cut the burger in half and tried to soldier on but couldn't come close to finishing the half. Thinking she, herself, was being too critical, gave the other half to the not picky, hungry member of our party. He took one bite and confirmed that it was not her imagination - it really was awful!
When our server came back she was informed of the dissatisfaction and did take it off the check but also seemed really perturbed about it and became rather unpleasant.
Let me just say, everyone at this table expects to pay for their meal when they dine out, but we certainly expect to receive edible food. It was a BURGER (not some new innovative culinary experiment, that was simply not to someone's personal taste) that was terrible. The waitress didn't prepare or cook it, I presume, so why is she taking criticism personally?
Her unpleasantness and the rather uncleanly conditions will certainly make me extremely reluctant to return.
