| - The service is absolutely brutal. You should get menus right when you sit down. If you dont get them, it shouldn't take ten minutes. You certainly shouldn't have to get up and go look for them yourself after ten minutes of wondering why someone who got sat after you already has menus and drinks. When you do go ask for them, the resoponse from the surly waitress should absolutely not be to roll her eyes, say "yea i'm looking for them too" and then walk away with no other words. A simple, "hey guys we are running low on menus, give me a second to find one" would have totally and completely fixed that situation. the table of five sitting next to you, who ordered after you, should not get their food before you. But I guess thats what happens when one of your three bored, empty, miserable watiresses forgets to actually punch your order in. There is a difference between poor service because its busy and poor service because they just don't care, and the ladies at the Beet do NOT care.
Having said that, the food is great. The apple with cheddar and ementhal grilled cheese sandwich is awesome! Even the side salad was amazing, and I'm not usually impressed by garden salads. The atmosphere is cute, the music is good, the menu is delicous. I don't even really thinks its all that overpriced, but I was surprised to learn that our pitcher of sangria was $35.00. In any case, its really too bad that the service is so awful, because I will definitely think twice about ever going there again. Service is kinda pretty important when it comes to enjoying a meal out.
