**Replying to business’s reply to my original review since commenting is not an option – Chef getting sick had nothing to do with why the owner stereotyped and asked with a tone “you guys are from Jamaica right?”. Or why a pregnant lady couldn’t get a glass of water for 45 mins while we saw the server standing and chatting at the bar. And yes we ate some food, after 2 hours of waiting, hungry people eat food, not a rocket science. Chef was sick for 1.5 hours? Why no one told the customers? No ambulance on premise for that long for someone who could be having a heart attack?**
8 of us went there on Saturday 7:30pm for dinner. We asked for a glass of water and menu, menu came 10 mins later, water came at 8:15, that too after we repeatedly requested some other server/floor employee (had a pregnant friend in the bunch). Then came the drinks, the server was asking us to pass this down and make space on the table (the tone made us all notice it). The appetizer (wings and calamari) came 40 mins later, and please note the calamari bowl was half filled with fried jalapeno/bell papers. It was a Saturday night, but not crowded as much, so we kept telling ourselves may be it’s this or that, sometimes things just go wrong etc. etc. Finally when they served main dish, they served everyone but my husband, they forgot his order! He sat there for 15 more mins but food never came. I ordered Chicken Alfredo pasta, it was anything but that. No sauce, no salt, chicken was dry, pasta was not boiled. Burgers were supposed to come with a sauce, no sauce anywhere. Patties were dry, over cooked and didn’t feel right. We finally had it, so asked for manager, someone came up and just said kitchen is backed up. The answer didn’t make sense with all the other bad incidences so we asked the manager for his boss, he said the General Manager “walked out” tonight. Damn! Finally came the owner and we politely explained him everything, he told us the chef was having chest pain. We said we feel sorry that this happened but we had no way of knowing that, or it cannot be the reason why we didn’t get a glass of water for 45 mins! Or why my husband wasn’t served at all. He said sorry and told us he will cancel our bill, so we were ready to leave after 2+ hours of waiting. We as a group decided not to leave any negative rating, thinking it was one of those bad nights. But then what the owner did, changed everything. We were leaving, and he asked “Are you guys Bengali?” we said “Yes?”, then with a condescending tone he said “From Jamaica right?” (We were not, but that’s no longer the point).
We not only left without having dinner, we left with disgust.
The restaurant was quite busy, yet there were only two servers working, which caused long wait times — both to place our order and to request the check. At several moments, it was difficult to find a server.
Regarding the food, the chicken did not feel fully cooked, and the cheese had an off taste that felt slightly rancid. For a restaurant with such a strong reputation, this was disappointing.
The atmosphere itself was pleasant, but the overall experience was affected by the service delays and food quality. I hope this feedback helps improve the experience going forward.
Switch owner/manager, fire the chef, keep the staff. Gut it, start all over. Major improvement needed.
We tried the vodka pasta and it was SO good — creamy, flavorful, literally 10/10. The Mediterranean salad was super fresh and loaded with flavor. And the crispy, crunchy pizza? I’m obsessed.
The shrimp was absolutely delicious too — everything we ordered was chef’s kiss. Plus, the portions are huge, so you’re definitely getting your money’s worth.
They even have a game area where you can hang out, sip your drinks, and just have the best time with your friends. We ended on a sweet note (of course!) and it was the perfect finish to an amazing meal.
Highly recommend checking this place out — perfect for date night, girls’ night, or just a fun evening out!
The server was very good his name was Karan
Came here with my family to get dinner because I saw videos on social about their new halal menu.
Apps: Probably the only good things I had that night. BUT, it came 40 mins after ordering.
Dinner: We got Peter Luger burger, Mex Burger, Fish n Chips, Mediterranean salad broiled salmon, and bbq and hot wings.
Entrees took another 30 mins after appetizers.
Peter Lugers burger: This is the thing I came for, I saw so many videos about how good it is and whatnot. I asked for medium well, It was probably the worst burger I had in my life. It tasted like the meat was microwaved. I’ve had well done burgers before and this wasn’t even well done. It tasted like boiled and microwaved meat, served with sauce. I’ve had cafeteria burgers that were better than this. I couldn’t even get through the full burger, I stopped halfway and lost my appetite. 0/5
Mexican burger was the same experience according to my mom so that was a 1/5, only because she like the coleslaw side.
Wings: 2/5 the bbq ones were okay but probably because it masked the freezer burn and fishy smell that the buffalo wings couldn’t. This one I could only muster 1 bite of the buffalo before I left it alone.
Salmon: Funny enough the only “non halal item” was probably the best entree from this group. My toddler liked it so 4/5. The side fries looked sad so it lost a point.
Fish n chips: Never arrived, was only told after all the other foods were given that they don’t have it anymore. 0/5 for that experience.
Service: Our waitress seemed new and kind of frazzled so I won’t take it out on her, but the food took way too long to arrive. The restaurant wasn’t even packed. There was a football game playing so it was a little busy, but not enough that food should be coming so late.
DON’T come here if you’re a Muslim who thinks they’ll get some good food from their halal menu! Dont believe the social media posts they have hyping up this place, at this point I think they definitely paid for those reviews. I was so disappointed by the Peter Luger burger, that I got a Tex’s burger later that night, and that was a whole lot better than the trash we were served.
