What started out as a nice family brunch went expensively wrong. My BF and I decided to split a side of bacon - sounds easy enough? No! We asked the waitress how many slices in a side order; she answered 4; we asked for 2 done limp and 2 done well. After delivering our food, then finally our toast, and then after another while, just as I was about to ask, out comes the waitress with plates of bacon. She started to place them all on our table. We looked her and asked what this was? She said 'you wanted 4 orders, right?' We said 'no, we just asked how many slices in a side and that we wanted 2 each cooked different ways.' She said she could take them back into the kitchen and knowing that they can't reuse them, I said 'rather than throw them out I guess we could eat them but we only ordered 1 side'. Well, was that ever a generous mistake!! She freakin' charged us for 4 (FOUR!!!) sides of bacon. When we complained she said she'd send Shirley over to us. Well, Shirley walked right by us 2x. Then when we got her attention she said 'I walked by at the tail end of you accepting them from the waitress so there you go. You offered to eat them not have them sent back so we could reuse them'. At which point, we were all floored. REUSE?!?!?! What the HELL?? My understanding of restaurants is that once food leaves the kitchen and gets placed it cannot be taken back and put out for another customer. In the end, yes, we paid for the FOUR sides of bacon, but will not recommend anyone try them out without expressing this: HAVE THEM READ BACK YOUR ORDER!!
Pros: started out good
Cons: waitress admitted she was tired and had been off
