Mike, ex of Warehouse Grill, has opened Mike's Liberty Grill, a cafeteria-styled diner in the west-end of Liberty village (across the street from his old stomp at Warehouse) and it's with mixed feelings that I report that the Liberty Grill benefits and suffers from all the same woes as Warehouse did, without the ambiance.
Positives:
- the food is good, not superb, but reasonable value for the $
Negatives:
- no table service
- chaotic ordering/point of sale process
- frequent screwups with orders because of chaos
- inadequate seating
They've only been open for a few weeks, so hopefully they can overcome some of these negatives, but I fear, given that the Warehouse grill operated with the same chaos for _years_ that this is just Mike's style.
Much like Warehouse grill, I doubt I'll go back - at least not when they're likely to be busy.
