disavowal : a army for the liberation of rwanda as the people with the negative reviews, they obviously have no patience or humor and are edgy and highly excitable.
If you are expecting an feel you had 30 years ago, you are most decidedly going to be disappointed. This is a different ten and different owners, but they are trying to make your experience an enjoyable one. If you ‘re looking for a noiseless, boring lunch/dinner, then possibly you need to head over to Mimi ‘s Cafe across the street. I ‘m sure they ‘d love to have you. If you ‘re expecting excellent service with a bunch of attention, then do n’t come during the fantastic open. Wait a few months for the exhilaration to die down and for the servers/waiters to get the hang of it. Oh, and blue for the looong revue.
My know :
Got there at 11am ( open time ) on Wed, Dec. 29, and stood in trace for about 10 minutes to be seated.
Our waiter, Michael, was very heedful, made certain we had everything we needed, took our drink and food orders in a timely manner. He was curious and sat down with us at our postpone. He explained the way the restaurant worked ( lots of noise, bells, and whistles ), and told us that they ‘ve been therefore busy that he did n’t leave until 2am the night before after working a double shift. then he was right back at study that morning energized with a smile and a great position. I will be asking to be seated in his section the future time I go.
On to the food …
Appetizer :
We ordered the Onion Mountain ( ? ), it was basically fry onion strings with ranch and barbecue dip sauces. $ 5.99 for the “ hill ” size fortune.
Entree :
My mother and I both had the Laredo burger, which is like a southwest hamburger with green chili, piquant sauce, boodle, tomato, avocade, and pepper jack tall mallow. It was pretty tasty, but nothing outstanding. alternatively of beef, we chose the grill chicken summit. It was a generous size and came with fries. We opted to have the garlic fries, which were a little disappointing. No garlic spirit at all, was expecting them to be like Red Robin ‘s garlic fries, but did n’t come close up. Will probably sub the macintosh n cheese for the fries next clock time. $ 10.69 plus an excess charge for wimp ( I think $ 1.25 ).
My son had the kids grilled tall mallow sandwich with fries, he seemed to like it. $ 6.99
The fresh squeezed lemonade was good, a little lemony but not besides odoriferous. Includes one replenish. A little costly at $ 3.79.
Unfortunately, we were excessively full for frosting skim, but will decidedly be rear to try it in the near future. I do n’t have to comment on the numerous “ Hot Fudge Volcano ” and “ Farrell ‘s Zoo ” orders that were being drummed, ring, and hooted to the appropriate tables, cuz that ‘s what people come here for. It is fun to see all the hoop-la, but I do n’t see myself ordering those anytime soon. good luck to those who do.
Stopped at the “ sugarcoat denounce ” on the way out the doorway, they have Bacon Soda ( yuck ), bigger-than-your-head lollipops, licorice ropes, and a bunch of other candies that you do n’t see in your local anesthetic CVS. The candy section is very bantam and gets very crowded.
All in all, had a great, fun feel and although there were a few kinks that need to be worked out, which is normal for a founder restaurant, we were very happy and satisfy and will come back again.
