| - This isn't somewhere that I frequent in Tremont, but we thought we'd check it out after hearing that they began serving food. What a great idea! Huge nice patio and what should be a nice atmosphere and now food, woo hoo!
A few friends and I went here after a few drinks and we were starving. It was around 8pm, so we figured we had missed any 'dinner rush' they might have had. We sat ourselves on the back patio where there were 6 other tables seated and one server running around in mass chaos. (Mind you, nobody was at the inside bar besides the bartender.) At this point, their kitchen had only been open for one week, so I didn't expect everything to run seamlessly.
We sat and waited for about 7 (LONG) minutes for our server to greet us and take our order. We got a few beers and ordered an appetizer, and food to go, since we already had waited long enough and didn't want to see what type of problems we'd encounter with eating our meal there. Our tater tot app came out a good 25 minutes after we ordered, fried to a crisp. I very, very rarely complain about food but we couldn't even eat them. I can't believe they would even serve them to a paying customer, they must have been left in the fryer for the entire 25 minutes we waited.
We took the food togo; a meat lovers pizza, philly cheese steak, and a chicken caesar salad. The salad was fine, the pizza was actually fantastic (in a Stouffer's sort of way) and the cheese steak was just weird. It was served on a ciabatta bun with a thicker cut of meat on it with the strangest, orangest cheese on it. Think, cheese whiz. Weird, and not recommended. It did come with a side of tots, which they got right this time.
The server was apologetic and told us that there was only one person working in the kitchen, however they were not slammed by any means with food orders and nothing else was up to par during the whole dining experience.
I wish it wasn't so cute, cause I would like to hang out there if it didn't suck so bad.
