Dude, really? They have been open for two days.

That makes an Emeril's review look ridiculous. Chill out and enjoy a cool place to hang.

I'd agree with that.

Side note: if it passes rags muster, you know it's legit.

A few employees were walking around but none seemed very interested in seating me until I stopped one and asked them what was up.


It's seat yourself...

Next time I spend some time in B.R., say in the next 10 to 15 years, I'll have to give it a try.

Most of my concerns revolved around our server, and are not things that would change whether they were open 2 days or 2 months.

As for the split checks, yes really. Its not an uncommon thing when I go out with co workers and it almost always happens when we go out for lunch. We always tip accordingly. However, 6 checks shouldn't take 30 min.

As for it being seat yourself, why have 4-5 people standing at the door greeting customers if its seat yourself? Also, if its your second day open expect to get some questions on how things operate.

Again, I plan on going back, just after giving it some time to settle in.

Went last night also
split the fish and chips with my wife, and while I know it's just beer battered cod, it was still pretty good!
Also the fries were hand cut!! yeaay!!

Had me a an ice cold Lifted Kilt from the tap and genuinely enjoyed the place.

Not sure which O-Ter it was in the booth next to us (with his wife, and daughter) but I heard their waiter mention the owner of the one in Dallas 'helped' the owners of the BR one get off the ground.

I also heard their waiter mention tigerdroppings, and the customer was nodding his head in agreement ...



I think this place will go far, I can certainly picture a crowed outdoor deck on Fri. or Sat. night, I just hope the under 25 year old crowd don't swarm the place and ruin it ......

we need to talk about the music, to me it can make or break a place. when i was there (around 6pm or so) 103.3 was playing.
I HATE that station, you guys have to consider satellite radio or musak, or even internet radio, i can send you a list of radio stations that would fit like a glove for the place....

but for the love of london bridge, don't make a habit of playing 103.3!!
thanks

It probably shouldn't, but you hit what is likely a new server learning a new system with this seperate check bullshite, so you get what you deserve.
I can't believe you wrote up this long of a review with all of these minor complaints on such a new place.
