I'm one of those guys who never leaves bad food reviews... ever... but dinner tonight was so hilariously awful and overpriced that I really have no choice. Four of us went for a bday dinner and literally 100% of what we ordered was extremely disappointing. The service was ok, but the waitress refused to let us order a small Caesar side-salad for some reason, and we asked for some things to be "on the side" that she totally missed. ZERO stars on the food. First, the "Stuffed Puppies" - bland, room temp BBQ eggrolls with a shot of vinegar on the side and a blob of soggy, tasteless coleslaw in the middle. "Crab and Corn Chowder" - lukewarm, bland, soupy consistency for $9. I've had way better from a can. "Crab Cake Sandwich" - 5% crab 95% soggy, tasteless breading jammed in the middle of a bun. "Philly Cheesesteak" - the hoagie bottom literally disintegrated into soggy mush that had to be scraped together with your fingers, and who knows what's in that "secret sauce". It smelled like dishwater and tasted like runny, watered down blue cheese with maybe relish? Yuck. "Chicken Francese" - a little overbattered but otherwise moist and acceptable, but served in an oily gravy with ZERO flavor... no lemon, no garlic, no parsley... $20 for that joke. And the angel hair pasta was literally dripping oil off my fork. I ate the small piece of chicken and brought the big piece home for my dog. We all tasted each other's food to make sure we weren't crazy, and all of it sucked. No flavor or seasoning on anything, oily and soggy, and delivered lukewarm to room temp. If I had asked for the manager I would have had to protest the entire meal, which just would have looked ridiculous. We were going to get birthday dessert and nachos to go for someone else, but quickly changed our minds and just got the check, which they then added 3.5% to for using a credit card... without any heads-up. That's just straight up sneaky. Make it known the menu prices are CASH ONLY prices. $28 at the bar for two drinks. $110 at the table for food, tax, tip, and fee. We've been fans for years but that's the last money I ever spend at this place. I don't know what the hell happened with them, but it might be that they're trying to sell everything to everyone... seafood, pizza, Italian, burgers, pub food, southern comfort, varied appetizers... it's hard to do all of that well. And trust me, currently they aren't.
