| - We ate here last night on a whim for dinner. Me, the husband and the 3 year old kid. Why? Because it looked family friendly - the restaurant was bustling with lots of family's with multiple kids. That should've been a sign for me to turn us all around. The noise level was so high, I couldn't hear myself (which is really unusual). The food is o.k. - the nachos starter I had was fine (nothing to write home about). My salad was the BLT - bacon, arugula, tomato - there was some avocado there, and 1 small bite of a tomato in the entire dish. Strange to have 1 bite of tomato for a dish called the BLT. Bacon wasn't crispy, either. It was just...meh. I just read online the complaints on waiting for the food, menus, etc. I am afraid the complaints are true. It took over 30 minutes for our food to arrive. The kid had a grilled cheese sandwich with fries. The husband had the 2 egg breakfast for dinner. The highlight of the evening was the ice cream bar, where we got the kid a scoop of Greg's chocolate ice cream with sprinkles on a cone for $2.75. If you tell them in advance that you'll pay full price but don't want the entire volume of a kid's sized cone they'll do it; I appreciated their respect of my wishes. All in all, I'll have to go to my usual fave diner in the 'hood - Good Bite, if I want the same kind of fare but with more flair.
