I have been to the Social Box several times and the food is consistently quite good. Everything I've tried has looked and tasted great. I am glad they are in the neighborhood and I have hopes for them. That said, the service has been ridiculously spotty. The first time I went, a person I took to be the floor manager checked with us every few minutes and the service was wonderful. With such a great start, I couldn't believe how badly things went in subsequent sittings. I had touted the place to my friends and family; I was embarrassed by the reality. Our waitress disappears, the drinks don't come, the appetizer finally arrives after the entree does, you name it....is the back of the house fighting with the front of the house?
Like I said, the food is high quality and, if it stays in business, I'm sure they will correct the service failings. At some future date I'll go for another sit-down but for a while I'll just do take-away.
