Totally mobbed on Margarita Monday, so I'm sure the staff was completely overwhelmed. When this happens and it's reflected in the meal, you comp. Not difficult.

I ordered a margarita, expecting to get a margarita. I normally would stay away from a Seekonk margarita, but when the evening calls for a promo, you gotta dive in. I got the ingredients (I think) in a large whiskey glass with ice. So...not a margarita. Do you usually get ice in yours? I wouldn't know, I only got it for the cheap apps. But the giant margarita glasses that I saw pass the table all night would lead me to believe that I'd been hoodwinked. That was $14. I could have had my oil changed (with a coupon, of course) for that price. Or destroyed my colon at Wrights Farm with enough change for one of those chicken ice cream jimmy roll things.

I ordered a shrimp cocktail app with that for $2 (promo), it never came. I mentioned that at the end of the night and asked for the nachos instead to go. I figured that a plate of nachos is worth more than one jumbo shrimp. Maybe. They came in a pizza box on wax paper. Ever tried to cook nachos on paper? I had to throw 50% of it away, it all stuck to the paper. Perhaps an investment into some tin foil would project the company in a positive linear path on the graph.

My meal was the kabob trio (steak, scallops, shrimp) with a salad and rice. No rice was introduced to my plate at any point during the meal, it must have been shy. I didn't realize until after because I was laughing too hard at the portion size. For $27, you have to include more than two pieces of steak, two scallops, and three shrimp. I'd have paid no more than $12 for what I was given.

I'm glad I wasted my Monday night out. I'm sure the kitchen was working their tails off, I know the wait staff was. But in the end when you're that bad, you have to recognize it and own it. I'm totally cool with giving a place a second chance during a slower night. They didn't seem too concerned with how we perceived the place, so now I have to pass along my perception. I'll go to the Price Rite down the street next time. At least if they screw up, it'll be cheap.
