So this restaurant located at Stone and Grant advertises itself as serving "contemporary native american comfort food". i have no idea what that means but i do know i was NOT comforted by my recent lunch.
I ate breakfast here several years ago and was disappointed at the lack of flavor. but this time, i left hungry and upset at paying for a totally unsatisfactory entree that i passively did not complain about to the waiter. Speaking up about food quality is one of the ways a restaurant improves (or not) - and in this i did not participate but another way is to not go back and to inform friends and foes of my experience.
The breakfast menu is vast and the lunch menu is sparse. I ordered a BLT with roasted pepper and chipotle mayo accompanied by sweet potato fries. The fries were the worst i've ever attempted to eat. They were overfried with burnt edges and they were cold. and the sandwich contained 2 large pieces of thick cut bacon which was not thoroughly cooked in all areas and which were also cold. This was layered on light rye bread with limp lettuce and a huge daddy sized roasted green pepper which totally overwhelmed the sandwich which i couldn't eat anyway.
The restaurant's service was very prompt and friendly and the atmosphere was neat and homey with a lot of Day of the Dead decorations. I won't be back.
