Tried to have dinner at Lynnwood Grill tonight. I ordered the Southwest chicken caesar salad. What was brought to me looked thoroughly unappetizing. I think it is honestly the worst excuse for a salad I've ever seen. It's like it was literally sitting directly under a heater with the hot food. The lettuce was soggy and gross. Apparently they had already applied the salad dressing, but it was not visible after the salad sat under the heat lamp. And the chicken on it was so dried out and hard that it actually hurt one of my teeth to try to have a bite of it.
I indicated to the waitress that the salad just was not up to par, and she offered to bring me something else. So I ordered the black
and bleu burger with some a1 steak sauce. What I ended up getting about five minutes later was a black bean burger. People at the other end of the table heard me say my order clearly. Apparently, even after the horrible salad, it wasn't worthwhile for the waitress to even pay attention to my second attempt at ordering something edible.
Then, even after attempting to serve me something twice that either was not edible or was not what I ordered, she still included the charge on the bill. I didn't even eat one bite of the black bean burger. But she would not know that since she never came back to address the situation. I guess at that point she figured she would just give up. Even after someone in my party directly telling her that she had brought me the wrong order, she never said one more word to me.
I gave two stars instead of one because I ordered a water with a lemon and I got a water with a lemon. Also, five out of six of the other people in our group did enjoy their food very much. I just left having only had a couple glasses of water and a few french fries. I do not plan to go back to this establishment.
In all fairness, all of the other staff that I observed seemed to be really on the ball, and Nick was awesome. I think that we just got unlucky with our waitress and the kitchen just put out a couple of entrees that really were not up to par.
