Service (11/15) or 73%
- Hostess(N/A) (optional)
If there was a hostess, I didn’t see her.
- Promptness(4/5 points)
The menu was in my hand before I even got a chance to sit down at the bar and my meal was infront of me before I finished half a cup of my coffee. There was absolutely no wait for seating.
- Alertness(4/5 points)
My coffee and water stayed filled up constantly. When I ran out of cream more was brought to me with out me asking for it. The bartender/waitress even balanced out making several drinks in addition to the regular duties. She was like a hawk.
- Friendliness(3/5 points)
I would say there was just about as much friendliness as I would expect, no more, no less.
Food and Drink (15/20) or 75%
- Price(5/5 points)
I don’t think it’s possible for you to get more for your money than at a place like this. My waffles, two eggs, and bacon were 9$.
- Quality of Food(4/5 points)
The waffle was amazing. The bacon was a little flimsy and not as tasty as I would have hoped. The eggs were, well, eggs. The home made biscuit was delicious and even better with the apple butter from the waffle.
- Quality of Beverage(3/5 points)
The coffee was okay, kind of middle of the road coffee, nothing special. I didn’t have any alcoholic beverages here, but I’m curious about the cajun bloody mary.
- Presentation(3/5 points)
The waffle, eggs, and bacon were all crammed on to one plate that really didn’t afford you much room to work with while cutting your food. The biscuit came on a small saucer . Everything was fairly generic.
Decor and Space (12/20) or 60%
- Cleanliness(3/5 points)
All the flatware, glassware, and dishware were about as clean as you would expect, nothing extravigant, but nothing gross either.
- Theme(4/5 points)
It’s a laid back place, but the art work changes frequently as artist present and sell their works. I like it though, as it really works as a venue for any artist, or anything for that matter. The restaurant is a place of comfort and their take-a-book/leave-a-book policy means you’ll never be bored while you wait, if you have to wait.
- Adequate Seating(3/5 points)
There’s plenty of room at the bar to sit, but some of the tables are a bit squished together. Also, there is one random table in the back that I’m sure is there just as an obstical to the waiters/waitresses and to make people coming out of the bathroom feel awkward.
- Location(2/5 points)
It’s on Flushing Avenue, but a bit of a walk from the Morgan stop on the L train. It really kind of sneaks up on you when you’re walking toward it.
Bonus(3/5 points)
One point for having apple butter. One point for remembering that I like biscuits. One point for having a trivia question that wins you free food or drinks.
Overall score: 38/55, with bonus 41/55, or 74.5%
