I can't imagine they are doing great at this location. That place always looks dead


Went once for brunch. Pretty terrible. I usually give two shits about service, but this place was a joke. We ordered mimosas, which were supposed to be bottomless. Got our first round, our food, and our waitress disappeared. 20+ minutes pass. I got up to ask the bartender for another round and possibly our waitress. The bartender gives me a strange look, says she'll take care of us, and I overhear her say our waitress left to buy more eggs. A little while later, she brings our second round, and I ask her if I heard correctly. Yup. Waitress straight up went to the store, and no one was attending to her tables. To top it off the food was pretty shite as well.
Whatever. Just another restaurant that will most probably fail, due to people not knowing what the frick they are doing

Ignorance is one the biggest assets for starting a restaurant. If people knew what they were getting themselves into, we wouldn't have so many restaurants.

Don't know if y'all saw Bus Report, but Portico in Southdowns has closed as of last Friday.

Bad management killed Portico. The bar area on Coursey was cool and had tons of potential -- especially during football season .. But you'd go in one night and there would 15 waitpersons twiddling their thumbs over 4 tables .. Then the next night with the bar packed at happy hour and a private party on the patio, there'd be one bartender ..
