text: I have never been more disappointed in my gastronomic experience in UrbanaChampaign then this past weekend at Destihl Brewery who knows if they even brew beer at this place Having been to Destihl a handful of times before the abominable brunch I suffered through this past weekend I expected an experience somewhat similar to what most people describe here on Yelp That being a friendly staff and decent perhaps even good food at reasonable prices nnUnfortunately Destihl has suffered a complete drain of quality over the last few years When it opened Destihl offered hot quality food served my intellectual and friendly servers who were happy to be working in one of Champaigns better restaurants Each time I dined at Destihl I noticed the quality of the food the quality of the service and the quality of the dining experience was eroding away This erosion culminated with the brunch a group of friends and I endured this past Sunday nnI say endured because our meal lasted from pm until pm The absurd elongation of our meal was not caused by entrancing deep conversation amongst old friends or by laggard mastication of our fantastic food The epoch that was our brunch at Destihl was caused solely by the complete ineptitude and incompetence of our server the manager and Destihl as an establishment nnTo begin our waiter spoke to our group at a volume slightly above whisper He seemed to not care at all that our decently sized group would likely give him his biggest tip of the day One could almost assume our waiter was indentured to Destihl and taking our orders suggesting menu items and assuring that we were taken care of was a reminder of the chains that confined him After taking our orders three of which were simply eggs bacon and potatoes not worth the our group set off on the marathon that ninety minutes later would end in us getting our food nnIn total our group would watch at least seven other parties wait for a table be placed near us taken care of by the same subjugated waiter eat pay their bill and depart After the fourth group who had arrived after us was served before us a member of our group called the manager over At this point we had spent minutes ordering and waiting nnBy this point the waiter had been unable to provide any information about our meal besides they are still working on it should be out soon This information was decrypted by the members of our group through the reading of his lips and not by any sort of audible understanding between him and ourselves We hoped the manger could provide us with additional information this would prove to be a fool hearted assumptionnnThe manager assured us he would check on our order and would return shortly After three more groups consumed their meals paid their tabs and departed and another half an hour passed the manager had not returned At this point our group decided that if our food did not arrive by PM we would simply stand up leave and eat fast food nnFinally at pm hour minutes after arriving our meal was served Destihl was relatively empty when we arrived and continued to be throughout our meal Yet our food took longer to cook than the run time of the original version of Frankenstein If you have been to Destihl for brunch you know none of the menu items are difficult to cook they are largely egg dishes accompanied by breakfast meats french toasts or a hot sandwich Since this experience ended I have wondered what took so long for our food to be cooked and leave the kitchen nnI have surmised that the reasons for our hour and a half endeavor are a product of the poor quality that now defines Destihl First our waiter did not care about us nor did he serve as our representative in the kitchen Second the cooks clearly lost track of our order because some food came out steaming hot some came out only partially complete and the rest came out lukewarm presumably having spent an hour under a heat lamp Finally the manager who never returned to our table and only after being called over again offered excuse after excuse before finally saying Well I am sorrynnTo anyone who has invested the time to read my review thank you To anyone who has spent the time to read my review and still intends to go to Destihl even after I have made clear my utter frustration and disappointment I wish you the best of luck nnTo conclude my friends and I will never eat at Destihl again and I look forward to the restaurant that will soon replace it
