Been here a few times since this place re-opened as Ziggy's (used to be Magoo's, among other names). Overall, the food is much better as this iteration. The pot roast nachos are killer! The owners are making a real effort to market this place via email, and for this I applaud them.
Speaking of email, I was reminded yesterday that the "Melt of the Week" this week is the Reuben Melt. Being in the mood for corned beef, the wife and I headed over for lunch.
Soooo..............when I ordered the Reuben Melt (of the week), I was informed by the waitress that "our sauerkraut hasn't come in yet". All I can say is.........LAME.....LOL.
I mean, wtf.........dude.............there is a Giant Eagle about 3 minutes away........lol......seriously. This just cracked me up. The fact that they would actually tell their customers this instead of sending someone down the street to get a few cans of sauerkraut is so ludicrous it's comical. They've just lost all credibility as even a wannabe serious bar/restaurant with me.
Maybe next time I should call ahead if I have any intentions of ordering the "Melt of the Week" to see if they have all of the ingredients? If not, I can stop at the grocery on my way........LOL
One other observation: This is Pittsburgh. Most restaurants here have a bottle of Heinz Ketchup on the table. Since I couldn't order the Reuben Melt, I ordered the Portabello and Swiss Burger (excellent, btw). The burger comes with fries and cole slaw.............and apparently no ketchup. You have to ask for it. And when you DO ask, what do you think they bring to the table? A good ole bottle of Heinz? Um, nope..lol. They bring you a little metal cup that has about 1/4 oz. of ketchup in it. Seriously? When did the ketchup shortage begin?
