Default Belle Glade disappoints again!!

They advertised Ribs & Chicken all day today so I invite my friends to join me for dinner there so after waiting 45 minutes for a table they announce that they are out of the special. The special was the reason why we chose to go there in the first place.
Very embarrassing for me!!!
Never again!

Be happy they finally admitted they were out of it. We ordered at around 5:30. We got only 1/2 portion of corn (I saw others got a whole ear and it was very good) undercooked chicken, really fatty ribs and a meager portion of pulled pork. The beans were from a can. Totally awful. I’m not the world’s best cook, but what I fix at home is many times better than what we got for $60. The corn and bread were the best things on the plate. Sad.

It's hard for a restaurant to plan for having a special. Give them a break they were really crowded.

Not unusual for a restaurant to run out of an advertised special.

why anyone would wait 45 minutes for any restaurant in the villages , is unbelievable--most of them are not worth waiting more than 5 minutes

There are more and more people living here. Tried getting a T time lately ? It’s the worst in the eleven years I’ve lived here.
