Don't Back Down

There used to be a great Mongolian Barbeque place in this location called BD's, but they unfortunately aren't there any longer. Now occupied by Stool Pigeons, a sort of sports bar concept, there isn't really a lot to like. What they do have is a nice patio area outside, and it is a good place to sit when the weather is good.

The downside to that is the servers don't do a good job of keeping things clean, and when you ask if they can clean it up, the first reaction is one where you are putting undue requests on them, the second reaction is one that you realize the grill-like tops of the tables don't clean well and the third reaction is that you get to see the other buildings of the area in their rundown state (they are in bad need of pressure washing).

Other than being able to enjoy good weather, the only thing you get is not having to sit inside a rather smoky environment. Even in the entry area it can get bad. Beyond there it's even worse.

But let's move onto the food. It sounds pretty decent. It isn't.

Rather than try the somewhat overpriced food, we opted to go for several appetizers. The chips and cheddar dip were horrid. The chips were stale and the cheese congealed. The onion strips were okay, but just a massive brick of them was just to much. It could have done the same job with half - or even a quarter - as many on the plate.

The other choice was made was for the sliders (mini burgers), and they were decent, especially with some of the onion straws on them. Combined with the rest, however, it was just not good. I'd highly recommend skipping this joint and going elsewhere.
