We dealt with a couple of waitstaff, they were proud to be there, professional, and responsive. I chickened out from complaining to them directly, even in the face of pretty immediate sadness at the quality of the food - I just didn't want to be the buzzkill for that evening. <BR/><BR/>Could be a great spot -nice decor and good staff. They just have to (they really have to) get some quality into the food part.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5483167008234330829.post-22623698768299968752009-02-24T21:01:00.000-08:002009-02-24T21:01:00.000-08:00My wife and I were beside ourselves (so that made ...My wife and I were beside ourselves (so that made four of us) at the news of San Antonio's opening. We stopped by before the opening, and got an informal tour from the very proud owner. Great light and air in the place, confirmed when we went post-opening to actually eat there.<BR/><BR/>I have to say, bad move. Not talking mouse bits in the food or anything like that,but the food was barely up to Taco Bell standards. The margarita had a plasticized nuclear color to it,and tasted so. The Stella Artois beer was as flat as a, well, atomic force microscope sensor array (couldn't bear to say pancake).<BR/><BR/>The flat beer is understandable: slightly odd brand, several days after grand opening, no one had ordered one since it was tapped.<BR/><BR/>I'm not going to hunt so hard for excuses on the food. It was at best uninspired, and as one commenter remarked, a Danish guy could (and apparently does) cook better mexican food than they served. Again - no mouse bits in the food, it just wasn't very good. Or even plain old good.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
