mel "starving student" r.'s Profile

I don't often bad mouth on here. Ok, that's not true, I do, but I don't often give low ratings. Jun, oh Jun, consistantly you have been extremely unpleasant to deal with. You have a very unfortuante male bitch face. Do you hate your job, sir?  I can only assume you hate your job by  the tone in your voice, the way you talk to me and other customers and how completely unhelpful and rude you are.

On the plus side, Dan, now that guy is tits. Please give him a raise or a golden nest egg or something. He is a prime example of a pleasant, extremely helpful, and very patient employee. I actually contemplated letting someone go in front of me to get Dan instead of Jun-I paid dearly for not waiting for Dan.

To Sum, Jun-cry
Dan-5 stars

This is not your typical restaurant. Shit is classy but they didn't turn up their noses at two heavily tattooed girls; fuck, we looked like part of the staff actually. Speaking of staff, getting caught talking about a pants party in our server's trousers, well, let's just say its par for the course with me. Décor is beautifully simple but doesn't feel stuffy. Open kitchen to watch the cooks hustle. You never wait too long for your next course and they take real good care of you without feeling rushed.

Make reservations, show up early and enjoy a drink in the lounge waiting area; it's cozy and sexy.

On a serious note, this place might not make it without proper foot traffic. The location is not the best for visibility or smelling the roses, but it's super clean inside with ample room, nice décor, great wifi and the owner is a real accommodating fellow. I'd hate to see it not survive with some of the yummy menu options that are available and how nice the people are.

Give it a go, support a local business man

"I'll take a bagel, hold the attitude. Oh, the attitude is included, no extra cost? Is there a trash receptacle I dispose of your shitty attitude into? Sweet. Here's a dollar tip, go buy a fucking smile"

Cheap eats with fresh ingredients (minus the end of day bagels) and beers. There ya go

Petey and Ross are great dudes. They both remembered my name when I walked in on my second visit. The food has been consistently good, beer selection awesome, the service(P&R) always friendly, and the atmosphere is stellar. This has fast become my go to Sunday brunch spot with beer-mosas and yummy buttery scones

mmmm buttery scones served by buttery Petey

I'm pretty sure a gal could obtain quite the robust figure eating here.

If a robust figure is a goal a gal might aim for.

Just sayin...big fucking burritos

The useful:
Determine fair by handy dandy flyer posted at purchasing machine, buy accordingly, place said ticket in human cattle toll booth, find according train, board, zone out.

The un-useful:
Here are just a few of my favorite missed connections from the daily commute from the East Bay to the city...

1. Would be rapper drunkenly promoting release ep
Your brash in-your-face-attitude marketing approach to the fair riders of the Richmond line of the late night Bart, found me enthralled. More so my heart raced when you wiped your shoe smegma on the seat next to me. Was this a simple rouse for my heart or mainly a love for the cleanliness of your Adidas?

2. Lover's quarrel
Granted, I was in my own world of iPod musical pre-coffee morning commute haze, but when I heard the shouts from the other passengers over Radiohead, I must confess confusion. My all too American overexposed love of reality gore implored to missing the guy on girl fisting action-not of the vaginal variety-which lulled the train to a 15minute wait time until you both fled the scene

3. Not too young, yet too bold
Your beautiful chiseled face and model good looks kept me in rapt attention. Your willingness to disclose the fact that you, 24, have already been married and divorced to someone my age, hitched from Brooklyn to New Orleans braving the possible sexual trucker act/rape to your purdy mouth and would love to hitch again only this time with your beloved fixie, addiction/sobriety and free love openness attitude...in a mere 10minutes to myself, a total stranger, kept me from disclosing my real number

4. Poindexter
Don't take offense to the title, a well dressed nerd is attractive, as was an obviously case in point to me eye fucking you for a good 3 stops which thusly caused you to jump ship in an almost Olympic speed sprint to another train in what I can only assume was in fear that I would bite off your head after copulation. For this, I am sorry

I heart you Bart

This place is the shit

The tits

The cat's meow

The Bees Knees

The toe curling big O

Is it worth the $10 dollar price? Meh, but I will eat there anyway cuz it's just straight up fucking good.

*phone in your order. trust me

Congrats to the May 2010 write up in GQ Mag!!

Been here a few times due to:
A. I know one of the cooks
B. its a few blocks from work
C. the beer selection, my god, I DIE

I've had nothing but great service, even from the door kid. Everyone has been real friendly, personable and quick. I already felt like a regular when they remembered me on the second visit. Pretzel is good, meat plate, good, goose liver pate, um...well, I tried. At least I didn't vomit on the waiter's junk(which was at my eye level, fyi-HELLO SAUSAGE)

it gets major crowded in here, as it's teeny tiny like Webster's dick...but hey, it's worth it. Just come early, preferably with a small crowd; like you and a book and just enjoy some beers.

Pricey...but I still pay
