As most would agree, repetition is important. However, in some cases, the first time is not necessary to endure. The hubby and I went to Rothwell's for Buck a Burger. He has been wanting to try it, and a burger for a dollar didn't seem half bad. On the menu, they were a quarter of a pound (4 oz). However, you have to pay for every condiment, except mayonnaise. It baffled my mind. So the "buck" would turn out more like $1.75 by the time the order was complete. The corn bread they serve for free is more than likely Jiffy. It was dry and too crumby. Its better than last time, being burnt.
The atmosphere was kind of bipolar. They have cloth table clothes and napkins, giving the fine dining affect. Though, there was butcher paper on the tables, and the food was served in diner baskets. I don't exactly understand where Mr. Rothwell is going with this concept. He even has an explanation on the table saying he is dedicated to food quality, being the highest as possible. Then why is half of the materials screaming diner and the other 4 star?
If there isn't a clear concept, there won't be too much hope for permanent success. I would love to consult for this restaurant, give a fresh perspective on how its viewed and what direction to go for it. The bar is closed off, secluded, like no one wants to be seen in there. About half the time I go by, its a wasteland. There is potential, if the owner will see it.
