| - Came in for lunch with co-workers (out of state training). We were seated rather quickly, and everything was fine. The server was friendly, brought us our drinks and we placed our order. However, it took between 35-40 minutes for us to get our meals. The order was neither fancy nor complicated. We ended up requesting to have our meals boxed, since it took all of our lunch time.
One thing that we noticed is that we were the only minorities in the restaurant. I didn't think much of it, until a caucasian couple which was seated after us, ended up being served before us. I don't know if it was just poor service or a way to keep certain types of people out of the restaurant, which caused our meals to get extensively delayed.
Bottom line, if you are a minority (Asian, Latino, African-American, etc.), do not be surprised if it takes ages for your food to arrive. If you think about it, it is a very subtle way to keep "unwanted" individuals out of the restaurant.
