I walked in and asked the bartender if they accepted credit cards. She indicated she didn't understand English. Ok, well no problem - I pull out the exact card I intended to use, and point to it, and she looked at it and nodded yes- no problem.
So I ran up a tab. The service overall was mediocre and slow, but nothing really extreme. I did not eat, but they seemed to have a good selection of food
There was no ambiance. There was (apparently) no sports on so the TVs were turned to VH1. The volume was just loud enough to barely hear it, but that was it. There was nothing else going on in the bar. It made me wonder what the point was.
When it came time to pay, surprise! Turns out, the card that I had verified was OK wasn't accepted. This really put me in a tough spot with no way to pay. Remarkably, there was no acknowledgement of hardship or that anything went wrong. It was apparently just another mistake, no big deal, doesn't affect the bartender, etc.
So for this absolutely terrible service, I give this place the rating it deserves. read more
