City Tavern — Restaurant in Carrollton

Food was great and the place is awesome/cute. My only complaint is how rude our waitress was to us. We started a separate tab at the bar (due to us wanting to keep drinking and we knew shortly after our food got there she would had to close out our tab), she accidentally charged us for a beer that was on a different tab and we stated this to her and she got snappy at us. Also at the beginning when we got there and she asked to see my ID she snatched it out of my hand -rude again, which wasn’t a big deal to me but her service slowly declined from there. I’ve been a server and a GM at a restaurant for several years and have never reacted that way to a customer, especially since we were so nice. Super unprofessional. Will still recommend this place for a good late night eats and good beer selection. She also called me a b*tch in front of everyone at our table (there was about 8-9 of us) and we all were just so shocked we didn’t even react because we all just couldn’t believe that. We ALWAYS tip good due to us all having worked in the restaurant industry for long periods of time, but as you can expect I personally did not leave a tip for the utter disrespect and disregard she had to us. Maybe because we all are young (mid 20s) but I still believe we should have been treated like any other customer. I never leave reviews, but was just found the experience with the waitress very distasteful and it left a sour...

Stopped by City Tavern in Carrollton and honestly… it was just okay. The food didn’t offend me, but it sure didn’t impress me either. I had a burger with tater tots and some mozzarella sticks. The mozzarella sticks were fine — I didn’t spit them out or send them back, so I guess that’s something.

I went with the pimento cheese burger. The idea of that is usually a home run — I’ve had some really solid ones before. So I came in with a little expectation… but what I got felt like the kitchen was just going through the motions. It wasn’t bad, it just didn’t have that punch or flavor you hope for. More like, "Yeah, that’s a burger," and less like, "Man, I’d come back for that."

Service was okay. Not great, not bad. Just kind of… there. Like the rest of the experience.

I didn’t leave mad. I didn’t leave wowed. I just left — and probably won’t be back. Not because of some terrible moment, but because there are better spots in town that give you a reason to come back....

Had a strange visit here one time

First off this place is usually pretty good! But one time the wife and I went here and sat down.

We waited about 15 minutes before someone came to our table when we were greeted with a, "are y'all planning on eating here tonight?" We looked at the waitress and said, "yes". She said, "well our kitchen is closed. Would you like something to drink?" We said, "no, thank you" and left. It was like 630 on a Thursday. They should have had a sign up.

When we do show up with the "kitchen open" we are always seemed to be passed up for other tables. The college waitresses must want the tip from the drink money because the wife and I hardly order their overpriced drinks, but that's no way to treat a paying customer!

The chicken sliders and the pimento and cheese is a must if you go by a night when the "kitchen is open".
