So, I was hungry, really wanted pizza but my favorite pizza place was closed. So right up the block is this place. Walked in, maybe 10-15 people inside, two wait staff, one manager, three cooks...
Got a seat, a menu, waited for a waiter to come over so I could order some sweet tea to drink (if you are a fan of 90% sweet, 5% tea, 5% water, great place)...
Waiter came back with my drink fairly quickly, then had to wait for 10 minutes for him to reappear for my order...
As I said, I was hungry, so I requested a order (small order, only six wings) of wings with medium sauce as a appetizer, and a mini pizza (hello, only me for lunch).
Well about 25 minutes of my lunch time goes by, no appetizer, low on tea, no pizza. The waiter had strolled by more than a few times, each time saying wings should be out shortly, they will be out soon...
Well, finally, about 35-40 minutes into my lunch time, here comes the wings and pizza....Here we go..
No napkins, no silverware (had to ask for these..)
The wings are BARELY done, inside or out, BARELY any sauce on the BARELY done wings, and, ready for it, wrong pizza. The waiter brings out this 14"" monster with most everything on it, also barely done, luke warm to the touch, could have used probably 10 more minutes in the oven...Now, I am still HUNGRY, lunch time almost over, so I try one of the wings, not sure if they were supposed to be fried or baked... NOT even close on the HUNGRY meter....Try a slice of the pizza, BARELY any sauce on it (no mention by the way, anywhere, that this may be how they fix their pizza here, with BARELY any sauce...)pizza toppings for all intents may have just as well have almost come out of the bag/box, whichever it was....AND I still had no refill on the sugar shock tea or a glass of water....Waiter said he would talk to the manager, ""she"" never showed up to talk to me, though he did say as I was leaving that he asked for something off of the meal because of the wings not coming out before the main meal...and she laughed, said NOPE...
I did pay fort an take the pizza with me, which I took home for dinner, added some sauce to and reheated, for about 10 minutes, turned out ok, nothing to rave about to be certain...So, if you like going someplace for lunch and BARELY getting what you ordered,BARELY like you asked for it, go here, but me, another place crossed off the list of places to go for a lunch. Maybe this is my wallets way of reminding me that nothing can quite compare, either in taste or price, to the left-overs I usually bring for lunch each day.!!
