| - I have been coming to Blue Adobe Grille for years. Recenlty, the service and food quality received there leaves a lot to be desired.
The last time in, I was there with my GF and excited to share Blue Adobe with her. Unfortunately, the dining experience was bad for several reasons.
Our order took more than one hour to reach the table, which made for an uncomfortable situation. As other patrons were being seated, receiving their food, and leaving, before ours arrived. It was embarrassing when the table next to us had a second couple come in and actually receive their food before ours did.
It was clear that one of a few things may have happened, possibly. These include that our order was not fired in the kitchen, that the food was perhaps messed up and had to be remade, or that our server simply forgot to ring it in. But it was disappointing that there was no explanation as per the wait. It was not so busy that night that it was simply the result of the kitchen being backed up. It took our server more than a half hour to replenish the tortilla chips. And even then, she did not refill the salsa or refill our drinks.
When the food arrived, my girlfriend's meal lacked the correct proportions and almost resembled that of an appetizer.
When we communicated our disappointment with the evening, there was no apology or reasonable explanation offered. The server simply suggested that we pick a dessert in a somewhat rushed tone. Almost curt. To our dismay, the quality of the desert served was not very good.
For what it's worth, I had ordered (and enjoyed) my usual meal in the Carne Adovada.
I do wish to return to Blue Adobe Grille, but have hesitated the last few times the craving set in. Here's hoping the best for this place; love the location, history and menu.
