I went back to Union Hall to give it another chance and I really don't see myself coming back. It's a horrible experience start to finish. The parking is horrible, the food is terrible, and the seating and place is crowded and overall unpleasant.
My friends and I went to Union Hall at 1pm on a monday and it took 20 minutes to find parking. Also while we were trying to find a spot our car was nearly hit 3 times by other cars looking for a spot. Not worth it.
We tried Wacool Tacos & Tamales this time because I was sure that they would have delicious traditional tacos, but I was wrong! Everything we ordered was bland. The taco was just a fried piece of fish with what it taste like mayo with chipotle, and not much else.. the slaw was crunchy this time, but flavorless. Torchy's has a much better baja taco. The chicken tamales were so dry, tiny, and flavorless--not made with love. I wish they had beef tamales instead, or if you're going to do chicken have a green salsa for it. The chips and guacamole were horrible, just flavorless, no lime, no salt, no cilantro in the guac. The chips were store bought, not homemade and they were saltless. My friend ordered the queso, it tastes like concession stand nacho cheese that you would get at a football stadium, it was horrible. Torchy's is much better and possibly cheaper. We all got pretty much the same thing, and we all agreed the food was super bland and dry! The only thing that taste decent was the red salsa.
Not only was the food bad, for 1 baja taco, 2 chicken tamales, and Guacamole with chips it was $16, and their drink options were dasani bottled water or cheap caffeinated sodas so I skipped that, and grabbed a water bottle from my car because Dasani water dries out my throat and tastes like plastic. Also I think it's strange that they don't offer iced fountain water. I thought all restaurants have to do this? That just seems off to me.
I'm sure the restaurant owners are trying to figure things out, but the price on these items are very high for terrible, super bland, dry, cheaply made food. They really need to rethink their recipes because this place doesn't work for me.
Union Hall please come up with a better parking solution. 20-30 parking spots is not even enough parking for employees that work in Union Hall, and I guarantee the employees are taking up most if not all the parking spaces closest to the building because none of the cars moved. The only other parking options are paid parking lots far away from the building which isn't worth it! Union Hall website still doesn't have menus of the vendors, and some of the links to the vendor information are broken. Also all the seating is uncomfortable and no vendor offers free fountain water which seems inhospitable. read more
