I wouldn't recommend this place to people I hate. Hear me out.
My wife and I were driving from Denver, CO to California. We'd been in the car for 17 hours with no AC in 117-degree heat, windows down, just trying to survive long enough to trade in the vehicle and pick up our new one.
We walked in on Thursday, August 20th planning to grab a quick pizza and head to our Airbnb to crash. We were greeted by a blonde bartender who got us drinks and took our order: a mushroom pizza and a cheese calzone to share.
A little later she told us our food should be out soon and asked if my wife wanted another drink. My wife said yes, but the bartender came back and said the kitchen was actually packing up our food now. We paid the tab and settled in to wait.
About 30 minutes later, we noticed that same bartender was handling the entire bar plus all of the tables. We also noticed another blonde employee hanging around the kitchen window expediting food. Plenty of food was coming out. Plenty of chatter and laughter too. We were still waiting.
Finally, the second employee came over and told us they were out of the sauce needed for the pizza we ordered and couldn't make it. I asked why it took over 30 minutes to tell us that. She apologized and said we could order anything we wanted for free and that she would refund what we'd already paid. Wanting to get fed and leave, I ordered a different pizza and the same calzone.
A little later, a man who claimed to be one of the owners came over and explained they had a chef leave because of a family emergency. He said it wasn't our problem, then proceeded to make it our problem. While he was explaining staffing issues, we were watching food fly out of the kitchen to tables that had come in after us.
My wife, who has spent years serving at Disney, wasn't interested in excuses. She just wanted the refund and to leave. The "owner" disappeared and returned with a receipt showing only about half the bill refunded. My wife reminded him we'd been explicitly told we could have anything we wanted for free and that the entire order would be refunded.
He disappeared again.
By this point we'd had enough. We were exhausted, starving, and just wanted to leave. Right as we were heading out, the replacement food finally came out along with the rest of the refund receipt.
Instead of ending things there, he started explaining the staffing issue all over again. My wife told him the real issue was that his staff kept telling us our food would be "right out," was "being packaged now," and was "next up" when none of that was true.
As we were leaving, he kept talking over her until she started raising her voice. That's when he decided to play tough guy, walking us toward the door telling us to "be on our way." He even said, "Yeah, that's what that'll get ya, babygirl."
That was honestly one of the most bizarre and unprofessional things said during the entire interaction.
The sad part is the food was actually good. My wife wouldn't touch it, but I did, and it was good.
The service, accountability, urgency, empathy, respect, and ownership were not.
I put "owner" in quotes throughout because nobody ever gave us a name, so I can't verify whether he actually was one.
Go if you want. Maybe you'll have a better experience.
But I can honestly say you'd probably have better odds literally anywhere else.
