I pass by here multiple times a day and noticed they have steak night on Thursdays, so I decided to…read moregive it a shot.
For $20, you get a small steak, two sides, and a salad. Sounds like a pretty decent deal, right? Well, let's break that down.
My steak was thin and small, and the quality wasn't great. The meat was tough. Like chuck steak. The asparagus side consisted of five small, wilted, sad-looking pieces. The first was so tough at the bottom that I gave up on the bottoms of the other four. Not exactly an impressive showing.
My kid's steak was admittedly a little bigger but not thicker. I asked if fries as a side were extra and she said yes. I said how about mac and cheese is that "included". The server said yes. Then the bill came, and there was an extra $2 charge!
I reminded her that she'd told me it was included. Her response? Yes, it was included in the sense that you could get it with the steak. It just cost extra. I don't know what fairytale land that definition of "included" comes from, but in the real world, being available as an add-on is NOT the same thing as being included in the price. And given the context of our fries discussion makes it even worse.
Between the tough steak, sad asparagus, and the "confusion" (or dishonesty) over what "included" means, this steak night left me with indigestion. I still tipped in full but we won't be back.
