The original of a good restaurant idea. I recently moved to Norwalk in Feb but I have know about…read moreBJ Ryan's, when as a minister next door to Unity of Norwalk, I would be taken there for Brunch. Always an enjoyable time. When I moved in the area I knew that i would have a staple food place. I was mailed coupons after I became a resident allowing me to dine at the 3 places with very decant discounts to other other locations that I was unaware of. What a blessing and treat!
To make a long story short, I never used the discounts until I tried each place, GLADLY going back to East Norwalk and BJ Banc. I have been back a lot, Now to Main street. Yes, a Monday with a Skelton staff tonight on July 27.. meaning they were DEAD on arrival. They was one man at the bar at 6:45 dining when I came in... I was not greeted for a bit and the barkeep, Heather I think, was very less than enthusiastic. I ordered a Pub Burger, always a good start with Onion ring side. The sides are relatively expensive to the entree, this being a burger. $6.00 for Onion Rings? Having lived in Manhattan for my 69 years I said well go for it. 6 quarter size burnt onion left overs from another order were placed in front of me. I said to her, this is $6 Onion Rings? Without a word spoken she was in the kitchen and in NO tome... 6 Onion Sized Rings were produced under cooked.
The Burger. I aske for RARE to Medium being pink.... it came out DEAD!
No customers, no dialogue as she was on her cell, I spent over $40 including 2 beers .
I am saddened as I like this place. Why be open every day of the week, with bad staff, not being engaging and poorly served food. Open 365 may be for those that are desperate.. I am not. But I want the Main St BJ to be what I remembered and the standard of East Norwalk and Banc. I would gladly post my name here because this review is meant to be a retrospect of something that I feel is the poor sister. I wish someone would be in touch with me... you are losing steam on this one.
