Patio Restaurant & Lounge — Restaurant in Independence

Starting off on a good note when we walked in the ambience was amazing patio vibes al the way👍👍 then came to servers (hell to the no ) They need a dress code (all black or something)The fact that they had on booty shorts short skirts that were up to their butts serving in a family atmosphere on Mother’s Day was not at all OK 👎👎👎👎then came the food. No scratch that. the drinks came. The drinks was OK not at all worth the 20 something dollars apiece but ok Music was loud but good We had to yell to talk to each other but loved the Selection of music that was playing then came the food …….. i don’t even know where to start with the food. We ordered one thing got another sent it back they responded great with that so ok I ordered the salmon with macaroni and green beans and cornbread (Cornbread never got there) Salmon was bland, but OK It would have been OK if they have salt and pepper shakers on the table but no Green beans were seasoned well, but very flimsy which I don’t mind. I ate all of them licking my fingers and all the macaroni. I gave her a six out of 10.My mother ordered the catfish yams and Cajun rice but when she got her Plate, it was chicken yams and macaroni so we sent it back. Had to wait another 10 minutes or so, which was OK but We all wanted to eat at the same time by the time her plate got there we were done she said that The Cajun rice was OK a little dry but OK and the catfish was good. My husband ordered shrimp, macaroni, and yams. His shrimp were very salty. You can’t just keep eating them. They get salty after a while.. My utensils was dirty when I received it so I sent it back. Never got another utensil so I ended up eating with my hands which was fine. Then came the check🤷🏽‍♀️ it is what it is I get it I will say this all in all I understand that they are new restaurant and I am all for it yes however my suggestions slow down get it right the first time we were OK waiting chill on the salt not everyone can have salt dress code needs to be enforced tremendously not acceptable However, your ambience decor amazing freaking amazing love the patio vibes. Good luck wish you nothing...

I had terrible service today from the bartender Erykah. I've been there for brunch 3wks straight(this was going to be my every week brunch spot), skipped last week and today was my 4th. I order my meal the same way each time. Today was my first time seeing her. So I explained to her how I ordered my meal. She wanted to dispute it with me. I told her to go ask the cook because the cook knows every time how I order it. She came back and told me that there was going to be a extra charge. I explained to her i'm not normally charged extra because I'm not adding a side, I'm just substituting. She went to the back and then came back and said okay that she was going to put it in that way. She still has a attitude but i'm being completely nice to her still(I'm saying Thank you/I appreciate you). Then I informed her that I had a reservation and asked what juices do they have to go with my mimosas(because i forgot). Then she turned around and asked me... "Did you have a reservation?" I said yes. Then she told me what the juices were. I told her I wanted the pineapple. Then she gets a attitude and goes to the back. I hear her yelling.... This girl is about to get on my nerves, she keep asking for stuff." " She wants a mimosa and it's only one of her."

That's when I politely got up, gathered my things, walked towards the kitchen door so that I could tell her or whoever walked out the back that i was leaving. A young man came out, I told him that I no longer wanted to eat there because I heard what she was hollering out. I said Thank you and I left!

The disrespect and unprofessional behavior i will not tolerate and will not be...

We visited Patio Restaurant and Lounge with a group of friends and had a reservation for the lounge side. However, when we arrived, only seating in the restaurant side was available. We were seated quickly, and our server, Rae, took our drink orders, though she seemed uninterested and had a bit of an attitude.

We ordered the chicken and fish with a variety of sides. The sides were actually quite good — the mac and cheese had a nice cheese pull and was flavorful, the candied yams were sweet and tender, the fries were crispy (similar to beer-battered fries), and the dirty rice was well seasoned. Unfortunately, the chicken was a major disappointment. It tasted and visually looked like it had been cooked in dirty grease and did not resemble the fresh, appealing chicken advertised on their social media.

When I brought it to our server’s attention, she responded, “That’s just how it’s cooked today,” which I found unacceptable. The alcoholic beverages were also watered down and lacked flavor.

Overall, the sides were the highlight of the meal, but the service, the chicken quality, and the drinks left much to be desired. I doubt I...
