A diner from Upstate NY
Aug 23, 2002
What a tourist trap!
The waitress took our whole order, including drinks without writing anything down. The appetizers were wrong, but we should have kept the wrong ones because when we finally got the correct ones, they were horrible! I ordered a vodka-cranberry juice to drink and the juice was rancid! My husband and sister's sandwich's were burnt on one side, which they turned over and covered with fries to hide that fact. She also got the wrong cheese on hers. My steak sandwich was supposed to be med-rare and it was served well-done and so tough that it took some effort to cut it with a knife. The roll was so stale that when I showed it to the waitress by banging it on the table.....it promptly broke in two! They could not even use the excuse that they were busy because there were only 2 other tables there and one of them was sending food back too! They would not even compensate us for anything! We also received major attitude from the incompetent waitress. When I told "locals" I know about my experience there, they told me that most "locals" only go there to drink and not for the food. I wish someone would have told us that sooner!
