I call B.S.! This place is Horrible! I've eaten here twice. The first time was for lunch. I had a turkey sandwich. It was mediocre at best. The Turkey and Bread was very dry. Which is unfortunate because the quality of the ingredients where good.
The second time was just recently for a dinner party. The occasion was my friends 31st birthday. It stated off well enough with all of us getting our drinks. Beer and wine, (as I might mention it is not a full bar) Which as a little disappointing seems I prefer a good scotch on the rocks. Anywho, after a pretty long wait about half an hour. Which I don't mind waiting to order when we have a dinner party of 8. At this point your just looking forward to having a good meal at least. After ordering, our salads came out and when I say salad I mean 9 pieces of mixed greens( I counted) and half of a cherry tomato. Not joking, the "salad" everyone got was about two bites apiece. When it first arrived we all looked at each other in disbelief!
This was at which point I turned to my friend sitting next to me and proceeded to tell him about my unfavorable experience I had here in the past. Oh, but it didn't top his experience though! He had been there for dinner with his parents before. He had ordered the Filet. When it arrived it was over cooked and was cut... A F%$%ing CUT IN IT! Are you kidding me! Mind you it cost $26. (I will gladly pay for a good steak!) If you don't know, it is an extreme.. forbidden taboo. Never, never cut into a steak while it's cooking.
Well, that evening he thought he would let by gones be by gones and ordered it again, along with another friend of ours. Well, well, well... Never the less it happened again. Both of their steaks where cut into! OMFG!... If they're going to charge that much for a steak they need to hire someone with enough experience that can cook a steak properly! (That goes this out saying) Well, that night I ordered the pork chops with a side of brussel sprouts. The pork chop was dry and the brussels where over cooked. arrrgh! And I love brussel sprouts!
All & all. This restaurant is trying to be too fancy for their own pants. I fear their down fall is a many a down fall of local restaurants. It's hard to be able to afford to hire the experienced help that is needed to run a good restaurant of the caliber that the Bohemian Moon is going for. Just because some Hipster came up with a catchy name for a restaurant does mean that it's going to live up to the "coolness" of it's name sake. Besides, I don't eat names. Oh, yeah. When I ask to talk to the cook, our waitress had no idea how to handle the situation. Mind you she said she has be working there for 5 years so it wasn't because she was new. I do not mind paying good money for great food. I am by far not a cheepskate! However, don't give an over cooked "turd sandwich" and tell me & charge me for Foie Gras! The reality is, I'd have no room to really complain if their quality reflected their prices. Or if they drastically reduced their menu prices. I digress. read more
