| - Met some friends here for a Sunday brunch back in mid December. Heather had heard great things and the photos looked amazing, so we were very much looking forward to trying this spot.
It's a very nice restaurant, I thought the layout and open kitchen were really cool. We were seated up by the front window... the girls ordered Caesars and mimosas and I started with a pint of Parallel 49 Jerkface 9000.. good start, right?
The food here looks fantastic. As plates came out to other tables we found ourselves checking them out, commenting and being impressed. Ultimately the esthetic qualities of the dishes would trump the flavor unfortunately. Heather and I each ordered Bennies... he the Buffalo Chicken, hot sauce and celeric slaw; me the Spinach, mushroom, goat cheese and crispy onion. We shared and swapped for a half each so we could each try two different kinds. Again, both were good just not as great as they looked.
Most disappointing was our server here. We had a young lady who seemed very disinterested in her job. Service was poor, we continually had to flag her down for water refills or any other issues. She was not overwhelmed or busy, she just didn't seem to care or know what she was doing.
Facility great, drinks good, food okay. service poor. That's my easy summary of our experience here.
