I am only giving this place two stars because of prior experiences I've had here. I've never once had amazing service, but the food is fairly cheap, so I'm aware I shouldn't be expecting "out of this world" treatment. However, regardless of a restaurant's price range, I still believe it is a server's duty to at least make the slightest effort to make sure that a customer has a cup to drink from and receives the food that they've ordered in a timely manner. Last week, I got the worst service I've ever received in a dine-in restaurant. As a server, I am very understanding when it comes to slow service due to a hectic atmosphere. However, the servers seemed extremely lazy and didn't make a single effort to ensure customer satisfaction. It wasn't busy enough to excuse the service I received. My friend was seated at the bar and upon my arrival, I was not acknowledged for 10 minutes. The server who took his order OBVIOUSLY noticed me, as I was sitting right in front of her. My friend asked her if I could order and without a greeting or smile, she wrote it down and punched it in. She neglected to ask us about what we'd like to drink, and throughout his entire meal, my friend didn't get so much as a water. I waved for the attention of a different server behind the bar and requested a water. She was doing something on the computer and couldn't get to me immediately, which is okay. Except for the fact that she finished and stood there for 5 minutes doing nothing until I made eye contact with her and looked away. She then left to go get my water and brought it back in about 2 minutes. As I watched them cooking, there were two chefs on two different grills. Because I ordered the Royale, I was constantly watching for eggs being cooked. One Chef finished cooking an egg, which I was so sure was for my burger, and then proceeded to leave for the day or for his break. 20 minutes later after he left (40 minutes since the order has been placed) I was still watching the other grill for eggs being cooked, but never did see it. A server then brought out my order a couple minutes later. My food came cold. The egg I saw him finish before he left? It WAS for my burger. But it sat there for God knows how long before I got it. The bread was burnt. Not browned. Burnt. To the point where I had to scrape it because it was bitter. Then I accidentally spilled my drink. As mentioned previously, I am a server, so I tip religiously. I gasped and picked up my cup. My jaw hung as all the workers looked back at me and I was SO prepared to leave a great tip because of how sorry I was. Yet, no one came to help. No one even came to hand me a napkin. Because I was sitting at the bar, my friend reached over to grab me napkins and I was able to push the ice and some water into the sink. No one came to check on us once throughout the entire time we were here and we had to get their attention to pay. My spilled water was never refilled so I had to drink the little I had left sparingly. My friend never got a water so I couldn't even drink any of his. I couldn't even finish my cold, burnt burger. I ate my fries, paid, and we left a dollar each as a tip. I would usually be a better tipper, but I was even questioning myself as to why I was tipping at all. We had to ASK for a single water and didn't get asked if we needed anything else even once. The service was so terrible, I made a yelp account and downloaded the app solely to share my horrible experience. read more
