SpeakEasy Bar & Grill

Food OK. Service bad.

I've been here twice. Once during restaurant week and things went well. Good steak. Went for July 4th, and pretty disappointed. Sat on the patio,ordered steamers and  both my friend and I ordered lobsters but didn't want succotash and mashed. Our server said we could have house salads and rice. Place was pretty empty and took 30 minutes for steamers to come out. Then salads came out and my lettuce was wilted and the tomatoes even had sweat on them so I knew they had been sitting there. My lobster came out and it's claw was cracked off but the meat was there. If I was a chef, manager or server I would've been embarrassed to serve that to a customer. The best part was at the end of the meal she tried to charge us $6 each for the salads that came with our meal. I guess this place is hit or miss, but the steamers were great and my steak the first time was good. Just dont expect too much from anyone working there.

I don't enjoy going to bars and having the cover band yell "SOCIAL" as a filler between songs. I'm not 16 anymore and having a SOCIAL ever 3 minutes is wildly unnecessary.

But when there's actual music happening, Speakeasy isn't so bad. It's a typical bar-turned-club-turned-high school dance party...just the thing to ignite my youthful spark...if only for one night. Plus it's nice to hear music that, you know, I actually heard back in the Summer of '69...or at a Party (like it's) 1999.

The location is good and the patio right in downtown is nice but the service is absolutely horrible. Every time I've been there I had to deal with one of their miserable staff members. Their food is mediocre and I will never go back there.
