It's not like they are going to create some awesome menu and hire a skilled chef and let him do his thing.
The bulldog, lagers, and VC are pretty damn consistent with their food plan at their places

Do y'all expect me to believe that they are anal and detailed oriented about everything except how the food tastes? I never ate at Velvet Cactus, but I will be very surprise if their food at this BR location is anything less than average. And very few restaurants serve better than average food. So they are in good company, competitively speaking.

Besides, if such anal owners found out there was a problem with the food, they would fix it. Wouldn't they? If I spent 2 million bucks on a restaurant, I sure as poop would make sure the food was right.

So I have serious doubts that the food is "bad". It just doesn't jive with what the other stuff I see happening there.

But if the food was truly bad for some people, hopefully for Velvet Cactus' sake that this happened a year or two ago and the problem has been corrected, before bringing shite food to BR.

But none of this really matters. They open tomorrow and their market will be their judge.
