Dude. Big time bummer. I don’t write bad reviews, like rarely. You really have to go out of your way to make the experience so low that I can’t justify it to a bad day for you. The arrival of food was spaced out by 20 minutes. My food after an hour and 10 minutes came out cold, even though they swear they brought it out as soon as it was ready from the kitchen. There is no way possible that was true btw. They did try to make it work on the check by waiving meals we didn’t even eat and offer to help but after an hour of waiting hungry nothing really makes sense. I made sure I wasn’t being out of line by writing this review and asked my group, who all have careers in food service for decades, and they all agreed that this was a terrible experience. When speaking with the manager they’re was a mix of lack of responsibility and trying to comp some of the meals. It just was too late and not impressive. I’m sorry to write this review. I was so hungry and ready for some delicious food. On a positive note, their fries are pretty good and the smashed potatoes came out hot. The esthetic was cool, but man… they could not have delivered a worse experience unless they talked down to us and made us feel unwelcome. I didn’t event eat the food and I hope to come back and have a chance to try their food which looks delicious. Please work on your Saturday brunch kitchen. We were not the only ones whom felt this way I could hear nearby tables discussing similar feelings on...
Read moreI was in the mood for a Corned Beef sandwich last night and I knew this restaurant finally opened. I invited a friend to join me. I was more than a bit disappointed! When we ordered I asked if they served Half Done Dill Pickles. One of the women behind the counter looked lost. Luckily the other one knew what I was talking about. We decided to do a little people watching on K Street and sat outside. The woman who had the deer in the headlights look brought our order. My friend ordered a salad and had to ask if it had dressing on it. The woman said it was and offered to bring more. She said she would check back with us in a few minutes. (That never happened. Last time we saw her was as she was walking out the door. As for mr, I looked at mine, tasted a bite of coleslaw and a super hard bagel chip. I didn't touch the sandwich because it was Pastrami not Corned Beef! I took it back and had it corrected. Later on, it became evident that the lettuce was wet when it was tossed and the dressing was weak. My friend had to get more. When we were done the server asked if we needed a box. We said yes. She walked off to get it andnever returned. I had to get it. My sandwich was good, my friends salad was good (with more dressing). So I am giving them a 4 for the sandwich and a 1 for the salad and service. I have been to some of the best delicatessens in America and unfortunately this is not one of them. Will I go...
Read moreYummy in my tummy and the price was right, and the welcoming service was a true blessing these days. I went the morning after I had horrible service at the butcher & barrel place across the street. It felt good to feel welcomed, & the prices are so reasonable. I loved the music but it was on replay so & they didn't have too many songs on the track & it replayed the same songs over & over way too often. But, I love George Benson, & I can always listen to any of his stuff over & over. I enjoyed myself & I ate outside that morning. The weather was beautiful this last weekend, so that added to the ambience. I was there on Saturday morning, January 27th 2024. I was the first one to sit outside that morning & I sorta over stayed my welcome, but never felt any negative vibes from any of the waitress' bc of it. Hardly anyone was there when I got there to eat, but when I left, there was a line of people. Sorry for taking up so much time @ my table, I just so enjoyed sitting outside on the street, listening to George Benson & wishing I was 30 years younger again. Never thought I'd ever get old enough to wish I was that many years younger, but I did, & it was in a " blink of an eye" that I got here.. Thank you Solomon's, you restored my faith in being welcomed in a restaurant. You guys saw me & I realized I wasn't as invisible as some have treated me. I recommend Solomon's and will DEFINITELY...
