I don't think even jones has gone so far as to imply he has presented a credible point here with this "steak house" gotcha nonsense.

Keep ignoring everybody else. You are wrong, and you aren't going to admit it.

so what are they making themselves out to be? you said theres no surprise that they advertise and hype their product. well they advertise and hype being a steakhouse.

its because the place has been there forever and its ingrained in everyones head as the hole in the wall crazy johnnies.

if someone were to come in town and go there for the first time, would you be surprised if they called the place a shitty steakhouse?

once again youre assuming what he "was trying to do". this all came about because he called the wine list comical.

I said,"The food sent me straight to the bathroom after eating it". Im sorry you took this as I put down the fork as I was heading to the bathroom to crap myself. You also have never had an upset stomach from eating food and have never known someone who has so lets just drop this point.

I guess, I stand corrected. LOL

What do you think they should "make themselves out to be"?

They are what they are. Anyone that has ever been there gets it.

Exactly.

I'd be more surprised they picked it or had someone tell them to go there and not tell them what to expect.

R2R does exactly what I assume he does. HE shits on just about everything. That is nothing new.

I've had an upset stomach hours later from food sure. But certainly not while I was in the establishment as you made it out to sound. Don't like the literal police? Don't exaggerate.

wow you really think thats on the same level?


Case 1-
"The food sent me straight to the bathroom after eating it."
"Wait, do you mean you took a crap sitting at the table or was it maybe 15-20 minutes after you left?"
"Well as I was leaving the place I felt my stomach rumbling so I went home and went to the bathroom. Needless to say, I wont be returning to the place"


Case 2-
"What you want for dinner tonight?"
"Kind of in the mood for a steak. Any steakhouses around?"
"Hell yea, lets head to the pizzeria!"
"Wait, I dont want pizza. What about this place that calls itself a steakhouse on yelp?"
"Ah that doesnt mean shite. To the pizzeria!"

I think that their expectations would be lowered as soon as they walked up to the patio area and saw the saybrahs in "Big Johnson" t-shirts playing NFL BLITZ.

Looks like this thread is now a lesson in how to crap up a thread and get the anchor on any legitimate discussion about a place you no longer want seen on the board.

The Cub in Shreveport does this quite well, although one might argue the steaks aren't cheap.

yeah been eating there for many many years .. as I grew up in Shreveport. the steaks have never really been cheap at all, and unfortunately the last few times I've been the quality and size of their steaks has really gone down, while the prices remain the same. potatoes are still killer though.
