Tried Rebecca's for lunch on a Friday afternoon, and the place was DEAD. I figured it was because it was new, so we gave it a shot.
First, the menu is very limited. I still found the ribs, so I ordered that. One of my companions tried to order shrimp and grits, but apparently it was discontinued...along with 3 other things, making the menu incredibly limited now.
For my sides I had a baked potato and the mac and cheese. The mac and cheese was homemade, but bland, which was a shame because i love homemade. It needed salt just to put some kind of taste.
My ribs came out finally and were OK at best. They fell off the bone, but that's a sign of over cooking. I prefer some kind of pull from them. The sauce seemed to have been added close to the end of the cook cycle or afterwards. It didn't seem to mesh properly.
My friend's chicken was bland and boring, according to her.
Overall, I had hopes for this place. It is lacking good exposure, advertising, and unfortunately the menu really needs work.
I gave it two stars because the waitress was great and the front staff was very friendly too. I just do not see what will keep this place from going under soon.
Unfortunately a restaurant needs a strong menu to survive. This just doesn't have it.
