I was so ready to love this place. I recommended to my friends that we go here after work to enjoy drinks and some dinner before the big Chandler-Perry High School state semi-final football game across the street at Hamilton High School. Big mistake. My husband and I showed up about a half hour after my friends. It took the waitress 20 minutes to come over to our table and take our drink order. We then had to wait 30 more minutes to be served a beer and a glass of wine. When she finally delivered the drinks we asked what the hold-up was and her response was, "Our bartenders are really chatty tonight. Sorry." Seriously? That's what you tell us? We then wanted to order some food before heading to the game. We asked her if the wait for food would be the same as the wait for our drinks and she said that it probably would be worse and would take between 30 and 45 minutes to get some nachos and a burger. We decided not to order any food at that point, settled our bill and left. Won't be going back.
***Update 12/02/16 Well, after tonight's CBS evening news "dirty diners" piece I saw The Ginger Monkey received the most health code violations (7). It is unlikely that I will ever visit the restaurant again and would recommend that all diners stay away.
