| - I was shocked when I discovered I hadn't yet reviewed Maizie's. Time to fix that.
I have a bit of a crush on Maizie's. Well, a bit more than a crush, really. With the exception of one app, I have thoroughly enjoyed everything I've tried here. The sweet potato fries are definitely the best I can find in Central Phoenix and I really, really love the Strawberry Tallcake - sweetly sinful!
My biggest gripe with this place is the service. There are three or four waiters (all men!) who are always, without fail, truly outstanding. The women, however, have been reliably less-than-stellar. I don't know why there seems to be such a split in level of service, but I've come to expect it. The women have never been outright terrible, but they are less friendly, slow, and a lot less responsive than the men. Last time I was there with a friend (his first visit), one of the women who appeared to be a manager-type instead of a server, hovered around our table and watched us while we ate. It was very unsettling and made us both a quite uncomfortable. Odd.
I'm going to Maizie's tonight and am already looking forward to enjoying the "Attitude Adjustment" (Happy Hour) specials and a really great meal. My fingers are crossed for a great server!
