Wild Onion - rudeness.

btw you are right about the toast. Its always rare to medium and never well done.

Someone I know likes toast medium on one side and not toasted on the other side .....

very nice, so I'm told .....

Hmmmm dunno.....

...if its not crisped and texturally altered to an acceptable level subsequent to the application of measured heat from a grill or toaster etc. then I think technically its still just called bread.

Probably in much the same way that any procedure or process can be fcuked up if you have a sufficiently capable idiot on duty.

Its just a matter of getting [the very basics] it right - no point in calling something that which it is in fact not.

For example, the part of the body last passed by faecal matter as it exits our lowly forms; now is that called the customer or the A**h*l* ?

Yeah - theres no such thing as bad publicity - the voyeur in us all will keep this establishment thronged as we eat limp-floppy toast and crane our necks to see the unsuspecting being put upon and abused.

perhaps we can make this thread a sticky so we can discuss future customer/toast abuse or even stories of customer satisfaction:)

When I first came to Limerick and I was brought here by a friend from work for the "experience". I thought it was gas. I wouldn't say the food was gorgeous but it did the job and there was lots of it. Ruth chatted to us and to most people and it was entertaining I suppose, even if she was giving out or slagging. Now when I have visitors, I bring them just because it's not the norm. I am not a regular but when I do go, I go because I want to see what's going to happen.

Well guys I went in *Tremble*

It was grand, your one is a bit in your face alright. I was only in the door and she was immediately asking me questions.

I think its best you didnt complain about the medium rare toast, Bob looks like he would kick your head in either way.

Final opinion for a lunch hour fill up: 4 out of 5 stars

Glad you enjoyed the food and experience. It's a nice place. I miss it tbh. The torrent of needless abuse I suffered will ensure I never return however.

p.s. My pal didn't complain. He simply asked for it to be toasted more.

irishproduce

You'll go back

Henry Ford III

I doubt it.

lord, no offence but this thread has become rather dull.

i get that people need to know stuff, and share stuff about this place but argh could there not be a sticky devoted to limerick restaurants in general? reviews etc etc...and make this one diiiieeee.

grasscutter

sounds good to me. People could recommend the best place to go and warn about any dodgy places.

yankinlk

misunderstood ruth and bob rock!

glad you like it. it would have to have criteria though so people didnt just ramble on. usually ambience(which covers decor etc etc), food and service and overall impression, which are given marks out of 5 or 10.whether its licensed too.and if someone had already posted about the restaurant, you just reply to that original thread. after giving the marks you can write what you thoughts on the place.

i dunno, thats just how i think it would be best organised.

ps i think that if it was given a budget rating too ie € for cheap €€ for middle of the road...you get the jist...it would help people out too.

Henry Ford III

I agree.

Wild Onion ratings then:-

Ambience 6.
Food 8.
Service 0
Value 6.
Overall. 5.

Jumpy

8 for food? You have to be joking.
I would rate it a 3 at the most in there.
But I find american cuisine somewhat lacking.

Henry Ford III

No I always thought the food there was tasty, plentiful, and different. Honestly.

Burgers and spuds were good. Breakfast was a eating challenge!
