Teresa's next door?

i'm still treated very well there *shrug*

 

My favorite place in the area. Always great service.

 

Did you introduce yourself as "The Shagger"? If so, I can see why they wouldn't encourage your return.

I've never had a bad experience at Teresa's. Most recent trip was about two weeks ago.

I always get good service at Teresa's.

 

Same here, always good service.
But, maybe it was because the waitstaff was ignoring the less important patrons.

 

Why not review the place versus creating a thread?

 

John, do you ever read Yelp reviews? Every place, no matter how good, has a number of one-and-dones for some seriously petty bullshit. I would like to hear more detail from the OP. I wouldn't be surprised if they had to wait a longer than normal for their first drink and are just still freshly annoyed by it. Personally, I always become the invisible man at a bar unless I'm known there, which is weird since I am a good tipper and have a generally pleasant disposition. If I'm with a lady friend, I usually give her money and have her get drinks so I don't have to get ignored then frustrated. This is why I punch a dog every time there's a non-PBW potentially low-key special tapping that I really want to go to that gets blown up on social media.

Anyway, I love Teresa's and have never had to wait too long there for a drink, even when I'm doing the ordering.

 

It's a long bar, so that can sometimes slow things down on the first drink. But generally the bartenders come by even several times before I'm done with my glass to ask if I'm OK and I'll usually order another when I'm down to a few sips.

I agree it can get busy during events, but the ones they get where it's packed are usually ridiculous (like 10+ HF/Grassroot beers or two years of CBS along with several Russian Rivers and a few Cantillons, etc.) and they do a great job of keeping everyone's glass full. There was a point during the HF event last year where it was completely full and I could only see a few people who didn't have a drink in their hand.

 

Yeah, not many people complain about Teresa's. I was surprised to see no one has reviewed the place since December of 2011! Too much effort I guess. Why not throw down your experience (good or bad) and knock them down to 96?

 

you call them pretentious and then say that someone from tired hands would be a better fit there? lulz. just found that funny.

 

I also go to TND frequently. There are a couple of bartenders that come across as snooty and pretentious, however, most of my experiences there have been good ones. I tend to ignore the short comings of the few because i am always drinking great beer. The food is excellent as well. I do see where you are coming from though.

 

for the amount of crap you talk on tired hands, I am not surprised they treat you in a way you find pretentious

 

just going off of popular opinion here...

 

Lots of times it gets busy at Teresa's and I'll have to wait at the bar. When its not crazy I never have a problem. No experience with the tables they have in the bar section. All my servers have been nice and VERY knowledgeable. I can't complain.

 

i had great service there less than a month ago
