| - We've gone to several MBFG locations in the valley, and this one was by far the worst we've seen. We went on Saturday evening (1/25/14) and sat at a table in the lounge. We put in a drink order, which the server dropped at the bar, but the bartender (young, oblivious kid) was too busy chatting it up with a woman at the end of the bar to notice. Eventually (10 minutes later), our server went behind the bar and poured our beers herself. There were a couple of off-duty employees of the restaurant eating at the bar, and they were so obnoxious - very loud, shouting over the bar, using obscenities, etc. Now really, I'm no prude, but we also don't want to listen to that over dinner! At one point during the meal, a female employee (not our server) came by with a broom and dustpan and literally swept under our chairs while we were sitting there. We were like ummmmm . . . really? Couldn't you wait until we were gone to do that? Obviously that was her last duty before going home, and she just wanted to get out of there. We couldn't believe how rude that was. Who trains these people? We do have to give props to our server, Nikki, who was awesome (and obviously quite embarrassed) throughout all of this. She was very attentive, and brought our food and drinks as quickly as she was able to, given the state of some of her co-workers. Incidentally, I had the calamari salad, which isn't as good as it used to be . . . they used to have the calamari in strips, and these were regular rings and bodies, not cooked crisp, and they were a little cold too. My husband got the greek salad topped with gyro, which was delicious. Needless to say, we will not be going back to this location, and we highly recommend that you drive the short distance to a different MBFG location as well.
