"15"^^ . "This is one place I really feel didn't deserve all of the hype it gets. It could've been my incredible hangover souring the experience, but everything that you hear and see about it vs what you experience in person are a night and day difference. \n\n\nThe hostess was a meat head. I walked up with my buddy, she rolled her eyes at me and said \"just so you know, the wait is like 40 minutes\". No greeting, no nothing. I pointed to two empty seats at the bar and said \"can we sit there?\" And got a sure, go ahead. \n\nThe bartender on the other hand was very friendly and welcoming. I am a bit of a chicken and waffles addict, so I ordered that along with a Diet Coke and a water. My friend ordered a chicken caesar salad as he hadn't seen a vegetable in at least 72 hours. \n\nWhile waiting for our food, we were reminded how stupid the average person is. Our first neighbours were an older likely married couple. The wife started chatting my buddy up and having a laughing good time with him. So her husband got jealous of my friends 3 digit IQ and t shirt with sleeves on it, and said \"wah yew eatin a sal-ud?You some sort a lady boy?\" To which my friend, also hung over and in a bad mood, asked him to step outside and find out. They left in a huff. \n\nBack to the chicken and waffles. Generally the best dish ever. so when you order it at a famous restaurant, you're basically expecting the food equivalent of the uncensored blurred lines video. What I got was more along the lines of meatloaf's \"I will do anything for love\". \n\nThe dish was bountiful but half of it was what you find at the bottom of the box that holds your grandmas 20 year old fake Christmas tree. I didn't ask for my food to be covered in pine needle branches and lawn trimmings, but it was. My appetite was completely ruined and I ate all of seven bites. I've seen the movie \"waiting\" and know what happens when you send food back (and can do a mean batwing) so I cut my losses and left. \n\nMy buddy's review of his salad: \"meh\" \n\nCheck the photo for the strangeness of the chicken and waffles. Made no sense to me. They're so much better up here in the Canadian white north \n\nBartender still got a 30% tip because I was up $1500 in an hour on the tables. So she's cool with me!"^^ . . .
