HORRIBLE!!!!!!

by diningjunkie12 at Citysearch

I actually liked this place when I was about 15, but that's when I was oblivious to what decent food tasted like, didn't notice how crappy the service was, too young to drink alcohol and know that the drinks have maybe a SPLASH of alcohol and a waste of money. The ONLY thing I can give DLR is that it's entertaining.... but so is people watching at the MALL!

DLR needs some MAJOR overhauling!!!!!

Overrated Rip-off

by JDTX at Citysearch

Stood outside for an hour waiting for seating while groups who arrived after us got sat before us (and they all happened to be hot 'party girls'). Once finally inside, they sat us at a table that didn't have enough seats for everyone, so we had to stand even longer inside while a manager bumbled around trying to figure it all out, having to dodge staff and customers as we stood around the table.

After all of this, the experience was better. The prices on the other hand, are absolutely OUTRAGEOUS for what you get. A tiny TINY TINY plate of shrimp and steak, HALF of what you would get at a Chili's: $15. Total robbery. And it's not like it tasted any different.

Overall conclusion: this place is completely overrated. Overpriced, bad planning, decent atmosphere. You're better off finding a cheap dive bar or a chain restaurant. Unless you feel like paying more for no reason to eat close to downtown with all the "cool" people.

Suuuuucks to the high heaven!!!!

This restaurant really is a fast food, dirty and unprofessional trash hole that hides behind the theme of being sarcastic and fun. My daughter wanted to have her birthday get together here. She saw pictures on the restaurant site with funny hats and read about the sarcastic waiters and thought it would be fun. I went to the restaurant myself to check the place out a few days in advance. Spoke with the manager, explained to her that I'll be coming in Saturday with 15 girls and three chaperons. She told me that they do not take reservations but if I call ahead they will move our party up on the list. She also assured me that this place will be fun for kids until 9 PM. At no time she mentioned to me that there must be a minimum order from the menu. Nothing to this regard is mentioned on their website.

I called Saturday afternoon to get my name on the list, when we arrived at 7 PM they did not have us on the books. Nobody moved us anywhere. After over an hour wait (which I'm not complaining about, they do not have any control over that) we were seated in the outside patio, which is OK too. Girls decided that they wanted large combos with wings, shrimp, cheese sticks and chicken fingers. Menu states that it feeds 4 to 6. I ordered 5 for 15 girls plus 1 for chaperons in addition to several orders of grand nachos and FF. I was constantly checking with the table to see if they wanted anything else, but they even could not finish what I ordered. The manager (a Head of Dicks or simply a Dickhead) told me that we need to order more food in order to get paper hats, WAW!!!! With almost $300 check I felt like crap.

The food - Sam's (or Sysco) frozen stuff deep fried or canned. Prices in the restaurant are higher then stated on the web site (may be they did it to me to up the ticket). The only sarcasm I heard from waiters was when they told my girls how cheap they were and told me that the crap on my table (before we were seated) was my appetizer. They themselves look like rejects from McDonalds, no character, no professionalism, dirty random outfits.

The only thing that kept me there that night were 15 girls in downtown on Saturday. Otherwise would have left right away. This place sucks; do not recommend it to anyone who wants a descent food or good time. They definitely will not see another dollar from me or my friends. Do not let them fool you too; it is not fun, it is not good, it is not clean.

Dick's Last Resort should be on your list as a Go-To place

First time visit to Dick's and was very enjoyable. We had a group of 7 people. Didn' t know what to expect. The waiter was great. Awesomely sarcasticly fun and great. The service was excellent. I had the Bufffalo Ranch Chicken Sandwich. It was wonderful. I would definitely recommend for others to try this place. Very enjoyable.
