203 Café — Restaurant in Fort Worth

Ok so, the sandwiches are good. But the staff had a very difficult time understanding very basic instructions. I ordered two breakfast tacos, lady asked if I wanted potatoes... assuming it was a normal side of potatoes... I specified and said, "just one order of potatoes please". We had to go over this 4x and she still was massively confused. I ordered two tacos so I did not want two sides of potatoes, just one side. Explained it four different ways then decided to leave it alone and let whatever happens happen.

Once I received our order, I think I understand her confusion.

THE HOMEFRIES (potatoes) WERE PORTIONED IN A CONDIMENT CUP. Are you kidding me??? IT'S POTATOES. THEY ARENT EXPENSIVE! I was not in any way hoping for, expecting or WANTING a large portion... but are you kidding me?? Potatoes are so cheap, that's where you are skimping?? ( btw, for comedic effect, I decided to count the number of potato cubes inside the condoment cup.. it came to seven.)

Lastly, minor complaint, their cup lids are too strong for their cheap straws (another place they are skipping), so your cup lid hole strangles your straw and you can't really get any drink. I had to take a plastic knife and break a hole...

After being greeted by chipper folks, I knew I could trust the place when they were so familiar with their customers by name and kind banter. People had their faves, even things not listed. I went with two of the daily specials with no regrets—pomegranate salad & creamy tomato soup. The salad was addictively satisfying. They were accommodating to my minor request of adding bread to eat with my soup; altogether it was reminiscent of marinara & vodka sauce flavors, like pizza soup? Just very good and filling. Must return to...

Food was no better than "ok". The user interface is terrible- there's a kiosk outside where I guess they want you to order and pay, however cannot access everything on menu.? If you want to order inside it's totally confusing- you order over the glass barrier behind which there are people preparing food so you have to interrupt them to place an order....and pay on the to-go side. Terrible overall experience....
