A diner from Buffalo Grove
Nov 20, 2009
Perhaps the OTB operation or the name change to Adam’s Roadhouse can save this restaurant, certainly NOT THE FOOD!
We went as a party of 4 & the others ordered 1/2 slabs Baby Back Ribs. I ordered a 1/2 order of BBQ Beef Ribs. What I was served was ONE RIB, about 6" long! They wanted $14 for that ONE RIB! I immediately complained to the waitress who said that she would bring me a second rib on the house. OK, I thought, that was until I tasted the beef rib. Yuck, HORRIBLE. Just a tough rib with some BBQ sauce dumped on it. I called her back and told her that I didn't want the second beef after all and to take the first one away as well. I also ordered a 1/2 slab of Baby Back Ribs.
When the ribs arrived I had to agree with my dining companions, they were way too fatty for Baby Back Ribs and the sauce was, at best, only fair. And this was at a place with RIB IN IT'S NAME! You'd think it was their specialty?
They DID comp me on my dinner, however the bill STILL came up to over $60, and that was without any wine, beer or other alcoholic beverages. WAY OVERPRICED for three really lousy meals (remember mine was comp'ed) and a host who refused to honor a coupon that we presented before the order was placed and was clipped to the bill when it was presented.
We DID leave the waitress a nice tip, since lousy food and a surly manager certainly were not her fault.
Save your money and your time. Avoid this place and save your money.
