750 ml sucks my will to live

this is really just taken from a comment I left at another cool blog.

check it out.


750ml was one of the WORST dining experiences I have had in several years.I eat out quite a bit. probably too much. but this meal was all wrong. 4 of us ate, but I think we shared dinner for 1. Dinner for 1 being 4 entrees and 4 apps. or should i say 8 small apps.
The wait staff appeared to be stoned out of their heads. The waitress kept apologizing for things taking so long because it was so hectic. There was 10 people in the restaurant. 4 were us, 2 were the waiter/waitress and 2 were the chefs. What does that leave? maybe 2 other people?
The breadstick thing was pretty lame considering how slow the service was. is bread expensive these days? i'm not sure and i guess I'm getting old because I remember when it was free.
The rib eye steak was the thinnest steak I have seen served other than skeak-ums or minute steak. fatty. not the good marbled kind of fatty, but the big gnarly piece of fat hanging around for no reason. fries were limp, oily and bland.

i would have loved to try the cheese that came with one of our salads but the piece was so small that it was only able to be cut into thirds.

even the tap water was really bad. not the usual snotty LA, must drink bottled sort of way. but the damn, what the hell are they doing kind of way.

750ml. 0ml good.
no photography necessary. just stay away. far away.
