Can I give it zero stars? We are regulars and used to use this place as our go to. Recently they have been a total disaster. They used to be an 18+ establishment but have changed to all ages. I have 3 kids at home and used to use this as an escape to have an adult night out. Tonight we sat down and had a spectacular 20 minute wait before any one event acknowledged we were there. Ordered drinks. After that waited 45 minutes with zero service to our table….we literally had to hand a random server cash just so we could get out of there….we had asked for a bill but again 15mins later no one coming to our table. In the meantime a group with 10 kids with 2 adults came in….kids crying and wandering around the restaurant. You should probably think about adding a ball pit as this is the style of restaurant you are becoming.
Your lack of service is staggering for a restaurant that used to be a cornerstone of a neighborhood. I can only imagine your list of regulars has shrunk significantly in the last 6 months.
Yours truly
A regular looking for a new local restaurant

12/19/2025 we were there for happy hour and had a great experience. Our server Malcolm, was affable and engaging. The drinks and food were served promptly and they had plenty of wait staff checking in on us. I had the chicken bites, gyoza, and fish tacos which were all excellent. It had been several years since I ate here, but guaranteed that won't be the case again because of the quality of service and awesome selection of food.

I ordered uber eats and out of all of our food 3/4 sauces were missing, including spicy aoili for sweet potato fries that we paid extra for!! I was also missing tartar sauce?! for my 2 pieces of fish and chips which made it kinda weird ngl. As well as gravy for fries that we ordered. Fries were soggy. (Pictured) Just overall disappointing after a long day, I’ve been an expo, and it’s not hard to check if there’s sauces missing, the food shouldn’t even be packed up unless the sauces were there. My 2 fish pieces I would call 1.5 because it was just chunks. I love original joes but this is not ok.
