Vinsar's Lounge Asian and Indian Fusion Cuisine — Restaurant in Phoenix

The most confusing experience ever. The space is massive. So when we arrived. It felt instantly awkward as we were the only customers at 11:30 on a Sunday. The server/ bartender, seemed really uncomfortable. Which was hard to read at first. But became clear as our visit progressed. The menu mentions a drink menu. Which they don't have. They promote a weekend brunch. The brunch menu is not listed online. It's also confusing. Very bare bones and extremely disappointing. Such a missed opportunity to do something different. I expected some Asian inspired unique brunch items. I can get eggs and toast at home. So I opted for sushi. The server / bartender was uncomfortable when I ordered, which made us uncomfortable. It was almost like are you are mad we are here? WAIT for it.....I soon learned why. 30 mins later after we ordered. And not seeing a glimpse of human life. She reappears with 2 pad Thai entrees. They were bland and almost slimy. Very lean cuisine.

I happen to look up in the bar mirror and see our server at the sushi bar clearly frantic. I muttered to my friends "this can't be real." My friend joked she's probably the chef. SURPRISE..........my 1 sushi roll and 1 order of nigiri (2 pieces ) arrived. She was very apologetic for the appearance and what appeared to us almost on the verge of tears or a mental breakdown. I bartend so I always give props to people trying their best. I respect and appreciate her effort. What was given to me was bizarre. Looked old. And almost the texture of cat food. She continued to apologize and explain she's still learning. She clearly was given zero direction how to properly cut fish. I spit half of it out and tossed in a trash can outside. Whoever owns or is running this place clearly has an identity crisis. To add insult to injury. I see a sushi chef come in as we are leaving and I'm slapped with a $42 bill. I only gave 2 stars because the server tried. It's reasonable to say no sushi till after 1pm. Safeway produces better sushi. In my opinion. The management set the server up to fail.

The kicker. Here we are 6:26pm and about 30 mins of horrible stomach pains. What I reluctantly ate come out at warp speed. I could feel my body trying to purge. I wouldn't even attempt to go here for another month or two. It's clear there's no leadership or experience.

There is no allure to this place. No proper signage in the parking lot. And the most awkward...

Service was awful, giving two stars since the food was decent once we actually got it. Nearly half the menu wasn't available, and several more dishes turned to be out of stock after we placed our order, which was disappointing. Our dishes slowly trickled out of the kitchen over the course of an hour. To be fair, we did have a large table of 9, but the restaurant was also empty aside from one other table that got their food shortly after we sat down. I was asked three times what I had ordered, which frustrated me after waiting an hour and asking several times about my food. By the end, our table was laughing at how absurd the situation was. The manager came over at the end and did apologize for the service, but did not offer to comp any items. He indicated the waitress was in training, but he did not appear to be helping her much if at all. Overall, we spent nearly two hours here. Many people going to lunch in this area are working professionals and cannot afford to spend that much time waiting for food. Although our food when we finally did get it was decent, I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone due to the poor...
