We took our Birthday boy 18y here at his request. He has never had lobster so this was his chance…read more
The waiter was great when he arrived. he was detailed, and was really trying to answer any questions before ordering. he was clear about the specials.
Our meal arrived after waiting for some time (to be expected with 5 larger plates).
This is where things fell apart. The first thing I noticed is a smell. It was a really bad smell. It smelled like a dirty wash rag, that had been sitting wet for some time, but a hint of ammonia from soap? I was trying to locate the smell, but i was one person away from my boy with the lobster. I was suspecting that as being the cause. However i did not want to trouble anyone, or disturb their dinner.
I then tried my "prime rib sandwich". Now being a prime rib freak, this had no resemblance to prime rib. it tasted like a beef sandwich. I thought to myself "if this is prime rib, what a waste". This type of bun with beef is worth only half of what was charged. and that would be still high.
I causally asked around at the table to see how others felt, and the next person beside me had the keg burger. she said it was super greasy and she was trying to eat it, but it was a challenge.
the next person i asked, also had the same as me, the prime rib sandwich. he said, "its OK". but he would eat cardboard and probably say that. He never complains about food. OK on his scale, is the bottom, but he would still eat it. LOL.. My older boy.
So, after all this sub par food, the Keg supplied this type of Ice cream cake. I did not catch what they called it, but the birthday boy loved it. he said "The lobster was not really any good, but I really liked that cake after!"
After I left, I talked to the wife about it, and it occurred to me, that maybe the lobster was not what it was suppose be. I asked her if she tasted it and she said "no". she would know if it was what it should be, and i wish she would of checked. maybe, our boy had a bad lobster, but he will never know, as his first lobster has now determined that he will never try it again.
Then, the bill. Holly cow..... Way, Way overpriced for sub par experience. I could have better tasting food at Wendy's.
The restaurant was busy, I cannot understand why people would waste their money for this. I saw no value. I feel we wasted our money, and had a really poor birthday experience. There was enough variety with our orders to know, there probably is nothing good on the menu that this amount of money even justifies.
I have had, way, way better experiences somewhere else, I would recommend moving on to another business that maybe has pride in the quality of the food.
I wish we never had this experience ......
