| - We've dined and drank here many times, and it's unfortunate that it takes a bad experience for me to leave a review. I know I've had both brunch and dinner here happily... but tonight was really disappointing.
1. No drink menu. Okay, fine, I get it... your bartenders are not only magical mixologists, but they're also mind readers. I am perfectly fine with a bar tender offering to make something for you, but to be so pretentious as to not even offer a menu of even fancy-pants cocktails - whatever. I literally had to say no to the bartender about four times before he'd stop explaining how I could order a drink from him. I felt like I was in high school again trying to turn down a cigarette. Seriously man, if you want me to order a drink so badly, HAND ME A FREAKING MENU.
2. Beef tartare instead of a burger. I've ordered these before, and I don't think it was even cooked through last time either. I probably ordered it medium rare in the past, so I went for medium this time. Neither of these cooking temperatures should leave the center of the burger as if they're raw or like heat never even reached it. But, alas, even ordering the burger medium left the center raw. We were too tired, hot, and hungry to send them back.
3. I actually WANTED to order the rib eye, but was told it was out (it was only around 8:45 at this point - really?! You're out of one of 3 entrees already?). Then, probably just a couple minutes after ordering the burger instead, I heard another waiter come out and let his table know they actually did have a couple of rib eyes left. UGH. SO annoying. You either ARE or ARE NOT out of something. Please don't guess when your menu is that small to begin with.
4. Get on Open Table. It's 2014.
