by Julie T. on I went here with a friend of mine to attend the Gavin Degraw concert that was for event planners to see what the space was like as well as be entertained. I was. However, we had dinner first in the Spice Market. The service was ATROCIOUS! We walked in and no one greeted us. When we did get someone to notice us they were ambivalent to our presence. We sat down at some of the tables in the bar area and had to flag down a waiter. While he was quite nice and personable, he disappeared after he took our order. Our food finally came and was placed on the tiny bar tables which were not big enough. Inevitably plates fell to the floor. We moved to the bar on our own accord. Again, no servers or even bartender. Finally, we had to ask several times as we waited for the bill. It came, and surprise, it was incorrect. Fifteen more minutes to wait and they returned with the correct bill. It seemed like the staff didn't want to be there or care about the customers. The food was ok - but I just remember the poor service and don't recommend returning.
by mary j. on I really love the food here. The croissants and other pastry items are delicious, and everything is reasonably priced. The staff is really nice also. However, I had to take a star off because they don't accept credit cards and the glasses are about 6 ounces too small. Edit-- They got bigger glasses!
by Leonore Gahr on Great little place to kick it with friends after work or even on the weekend...sooooo not pretentious, come as you are! Plenty of tables to accommodate parties of all sizes...multiple TV's for games and the like...and a huge menu! Make that TWO huge menus! lol One for the grubbin: I recommend the Burgers...DElish and the nachos....mmmm, smothery goodness! ALL the apps are your typical "bar fare" but good stuff nonetheless. One for the drinky-poos: Oh HELLLO...there's a drink that has the word "monkey" in it...can't recall the exact name. lol Sort of a pina colada-slash-banana flavored frothy thing. FAN-tastic. And for all you beer lover...ales galore!! Both on tap and in the bottle!! Extremely friendly waitstaff albeit the service at the tables CAN be a tad slow...but be patient. Ample street parking on both Pico AND in a lot just west of the Saloon.
