The Fainting Goat
Reviews
Every trip is always insanely slow to get waited on and then get your food... As almost everyone has already said. I've gave it so many chances...and they have changed management about 15 times. Nothing seems to change. It's been probably 2 years since I've been back. Just gave up....
fantastic food and atmosphere
1st Trip: Slow service isn't a big deal if staff is busy, but it's annoying when people are just standing around chatting. 2nd Trip: Gave it a year before going back. This time we were the only people there, and we were attended to promptly, but apparently the full plate of food spilled on the floor under a nearby table wasn't as important as standing around and chatting while not waiting on us. Let's wait 2 years this time. 3rd (and final) Trip: Ribeye sandwich was tasting so good that I let my wife have the rest after not liking her sandwich. She thought it was good until she found the long black hair in the meat. Is our luck just that bad, or is there a pattern?
Service has really suffered over the las t few years, and is exceptionally slow. Food was very good when they first opened, but has since gone downhill as well. Because this restaurant is close to the college, it served as a drunken party bar for a few years, which has deterred the local diners from going there with families. The college kids no longer frequent the restaurant, but quality has not improved.
We ordered soup and a grilled cheese and waited 30 minutes before any of it came out! We even had to ask our server to bring out the soup because she obviously wasnt going do it on her own! It wasnt even busy... in fact she was standing at the bar on her cell phone the whole night. The soup was edible but the grilled cheese was terrible. If you go ask to not sit in Andrea's section. The other servers looked nice and looked like they knew how to bring food out. This place peaks at its name and cool neon sign.
