Billy Bob's

I wish we could put negative stars.  Horrible, UN-attentive and UN-knowlegeable wait staff and service.  Hodgepodge look to the furnishings and layout, just like the old Billy Bob's on Division.  This restaurant can't seem to re-invent itself in a positive way.  Food - we ordered pizza.  They did accommodate changing the red sauce to the garlic white which we appreciated.  The mozzarella cheese had a strange texture though.  We will not be back.

Was a big fan of the original Billy Bob's on Division so was really pleased to see them reopen in downtown.  I stopped for dinner a little after 7:30 PM last Wednesday.  After a five-minute wait to be served (I was sitting at a mini-bar right behind the main bar) the owner, Billy, came over to ask if I wanted a drink and was very apologetic that it had taken so long to get to me... even though several servers and the bartender all had me in full view.  Billy also got me a menu and said that the bartender, one of his most efficient, would take care of me.  After a 20+ minute wait, I walked up to the bar to ask for my bill since it did not appear that anyone was going to take a dinner order from me.  It then took another five minutes to get a bill since no one was sure who had my check.  None of the servers nor the bartender seemed particularly concerned when I asked for my check and made a point of returning my menu without ordering.

I did speak with Billy as I left and, to his credit, he did apologize for the lack of service.  Unfortunately, I will need to think carefully about returning.  As a side note, I walked around the corner to 4th Street brewery, was greeted promptly, and received great service for my meal!

The steak bites are like rubber. Please get some quality steak. The mashed potatoes were horrible. I asked for ribs. The waitress asked me if I wanted a half rack or a full rack. I told her that I wanted a full rack of ribs, to which she replied. "And how would you like your prime rib cooked"?  The rest of the food was very underwhelming. I have tried Billy Bob's twice now and both times, I was not impressed. I will not be back.
