Well let me tell you of the experience of Bambinos and why I won't be back. I have been waiting forever for this place to open up. I was looking forward to a bar in the neighborhood. So when I saw they opened, we went Friday evening - 2 days after they were open. Walked in and the place looked great. Large TV's adorned the wall behind the bar. I noticed a garage door to open the place up and thought how great it will be to catch a game there in the Fall/Winter. So we sit down, wife, and neighbor and his wife. Friends were late so we ordered the nachos. $6.99 and if you want meat, add $3 bucks. We went meatless. Took a while but it came out and was decent. A bit undersized but it was OK. Guacamole was pureed and had very little flavor. Neighbors show up and order the chips and queso. Queso was really good. Where this went south was the chips were about a handful. We finished off the chips and still had queso left. I asked for more chips. The waiter (good Kid who was really trying) said OK, left and returned a few minutes later and told us that according to the owner he would have to charge us for extra chips. REALLY? So let's see you are open for 2 days, the place isn't even full and you aren't willing to let go of 25 cents worth of chips to appease a new customer? Needless to say, I was pissed. Like i told the waiter, that was Strike 1. So we order up and now all four of us are ready to try the burgers. Menu seemed attractive with the typical bar food aptly named after baseball people. I went for the Patty Melt. Wife and buddy had burgers. Neighbors wife had chicken strips. We all concluded the burgers were just OK. Mine was a very small patty and a smattering of sweet potato fries. Chicken was "tough". So, the hopes of a good local bar that I could walk to is dashed. We all concluded it was not worth coming back
Positives: Waiter was friendly, good looking bar and what every sports themed bar should have TV's and Cold beer.
Negatives: See above.
Also at the end the waiter asked us how the food was as the owner wanted to know. The guy was standing there the entire time and could have come over and asked but he chose not to. In fact I never saw him speak to any guests and this place is very small.
I can only hope this was an anomaly but someone else is going to have to convince it is worth coming back to.
