Good Eats, and Crappy Service

by JoeCuv

Great Food, but the absolute worst service on the planet. Be prepared to wait a long time, and for the staff to treat you like dirt. My last visit there, I phoned in an order and was told my order would be ready in about 10 to 15 minutes for pickup. I arrived in 20 minutes knowing that they would take longer than they told me. I paid for my lunch and then had to wait an additional 30 minutes to get my food. As I stood there I was subjected to some aggro bald employees ultra conservative political banter. When I go out to pick up my lunch, I don't care to listen to misinformed statements from someone that was calling customers "liberal jerks" behind their backs. The lack of customer service from the other employees and this employee in particular absolutely ruin the great potential that could be Swami's Cafe.

  • Pros: Good health food
  • Cons: Slowest most disrespectful service I have ever experienced
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended
