Terrible service, dirty, and stupidly expensive…read more Went on a Saturday afternoon and it was pretty busy so when things were moving a little slow it was understandable, but our server rarely checked on us or her other tables. Food runners came out to our table multiple times with the wrong orders because our server kept putting down the wrong table numbers. It took us over an hour to get our food and one entree never even came out. The serve came out a few minutes later and saw only three entrees on the table and wasn't going to say anything, we had to point it out. She said she would go check on the food. Came back 10 minutes later and said it would be right out. 10 minutes later, still no food. We went in to talk to the manager and all she had to say was "if you had told us sooner we could have given you free drinks" as if we knew the food was going to take over an hour and a half. At this point our server is still dilly dallying, hanging out by the soda machine. One of her tables also waited an hour for their food and she rang in the wrong order for them and the lady took it anyway because she didn't want to be there any longer. It was busy, but there seemed to be no issues with tables in other sections getting their food in a timely manner, just her tables that had the issues. We asked to make the missing entree to go. Another 15 minutes went by before we had to hound her for our checks. I should've know the service would be bad when we first sat down and one of her tables had to get up and find her to pay their bill. Not the mention- the bathrooms are absolutely disgusting and sinks don't work. Went to the bathroom when we first got there and a table inside wasn't bussed. Went to the bathroom again right before leaving, 2 and a half hours later, the table still wasn't busses.

I'll try to be short, but want to give a true account of the events. Yesterday I came from the city via Metra late afternoon with another friend to visit a dear friend that moved to Cary a few years ago. Cary is far & we rarely see one another. Needless to say, we were super excited to for this mini-reunion & for our friend to show us a slice of Cary. It was not the best planning being St Paddy's weekend but so be it. We specifically looked for a place we could easily talk & catch up. We started w/ one chocolate martini at Cucina Rustica and chatted OVER an HOUR. Little did we know, we should have stayed there. Next stop, Cary RACIST Ale House. The back area lounge was nearly empty & we were assured it was open (not booked for any events). The waitress, at the start aggressively asked a bunch of questions. I first thought her line of questioning was bizarre so I ignored her while trying to figure out what to order. She asked how we got there, who was driving & specifically said she didn't feel comfortable in serving me. WTF?!?!? My friend politely answered her questions and when she left, we all agreed the waitress's behavior was odd & laughed it off. We refused to have her ruin our evening. To our SHOCK the waitress would NOT serve me?! Only me! Was I disruptive? NO! Was I being violent or doing something illegal? NO! Did I come in stumbling? NO! Was I slumped over passed out? NO! This was crazy! Check your security cameras if you don't believe! Was this a bad twilight zone episode? Was someone going to tell us this was all a joke? I was speechless. We asked her why. She said it was a management decision. What?! Interesting since no one came to talk to us aside from her. We asked her to explain, to get some understanding. You will NOT believe what she said....she said it was my eyes. I looked at my two white friends & asked if something was wrong with my eyes? No, nothing is wrong. WOW, she basically said my Asian eyes were an issue. Falsely claiming I was drunk and couldn't be served because she didn't like Asian-looking eyes?!?! I was stone cold sober ***hole! We were all completely sober & flabbergasted! Completely disgusted, we left. I thought about brushing this aside but I wouldn't want anyone else to be treated that way. I will not allow them to humiliate me. This was supposed to be a happy occasion, and it was spoiled by a bigoted, small-minded person. I don't know how these people can live with themselves.

I ordered a strawberry daiquiri because theirs are good and they're hard to find elsewhere. Their mai tai's are also delicious. We ordered the berry nut salad to share. We get it with the raspberry vinaigrette. I got the Mac & cheese as my main and it was mid. It was barely even warm when it came out. It actually upset my stomach afterwards. I've had it before and know this isn't how it should've been. It's usually cheesy and delicious.

The drinks were ok and the pretzel was good, but it's hard to screw up a pretzel and beer. So both times I had lunch with fries the fries were cold. The first time the waitress (server) never came back for almost an hour so I just ate what I could. The main was cold too. Very disappointing. Many people seem to like this place for the food, but after my second lunch visit, today, I really cannot imagine why. I got the cheeseburger lunch special, which I can tell you was special in no particular way. The fries were greasy and cold, so I told the server right away, and she wished the whole plate away where she coulda left the plate, let me eat the burger while it was hot, but no. So it comes back served the second time by a different angry faced person and I said I guess we'll try again. The fries were very hot, but greasy but ok. I ate them before the weren't hot. The burger. The most disappointing I've had in a while. The bun was chewy, the tomato grease soaked, the onions grease soaked and the lettuce partially ok. So I thought just eat the 1/4 pd patty. Not sure it was a quarter pound and even if the accompaniments were eatable I would not have tasted the burger. It was very thin and pink inside. Not the best beef I've ever had. Not even close. So although the service was fine, I gave it two try's and have to say another go will not be happening soon. It was lunch there were about 5 people there at 12:30. No excuses like it was busy so things get overlooked. So, although I feel bad about 2stars, I honestly think it was well deserved.
