text: I have heard many good things about BlissreBar from my friends and family So many in fact that when Groupon featured a halfpriced Groupon I got TWOnnSo I went to use one of the Groupons last night It was a Saturday night I expected it to be busy and I expected a wait because I had not made reservations I got one but not the othernnI walked in and immediately noticed how empty it was No one was inside reBar but there were a few people at the patio bar and one party at a table near the patio barnOn the Bliss side there were two tables occupied and three to four tables that were clean and emptynnUpon walking up to the host he immediately greeted us and asked if we had reservations We told him we did not to which he replied Oh um well we really require reservations on the weekend and tonight we are completely booked solid until the next table leaves But let me check around and see what we can donReally You are booked solid until the next table leaves Yeah that is how it usually works guy I am not sharing a table with a bunch of people I have never met before Oh and by the way stop acting like this restaurant is in NYC or LAnnSo we wait a few minutes and told us Yeah it will about minutes but you can sit in bar You can even order in the bar if you want but I know most people who come here want to eat on the other side because they want that restaurant experiencennOk dude I have been to a restaurant before I know what the restaurant experience is all about I mean should I have been offended We were well dressed Groomed I do not think we looked like cavemennnSo we went inside ReBar and ordered some drinks I liked the decor simple yet funky It just seemed so empty as did both patios Granted I hate when restaurants are cramped tight with tables but they could easily fit twice the amount of tables and still have plenty of roomnThe bartender was great Very friendly and worked fast The only thing that put me off a bit was when she complained about how busy they had been because of all the Groupons and how no one was really sure what to do with themnShe made us our drinks and we sat down Only one party came in the whole time we were in the barnFifteen minutes later the host came to let us know that a table would be ready in min So we went out and stood by the host station where no one was to be found After another minutes someone else greeted us We told him we were waiting for a table and gave our name he was friendly and sat us promptlynnWe shared an appetizer each ordered the same entree and split dessertnAs an appetizer we had the fried sausage ravioli which was really good but needed cheesenWe each had the loaded macaroni It was good but there was something that was missingit was lacking flavor The chicken and bacon was good but the cheese was bland It tasted a bit velveetaynFor dessert we got rice pudding It was really good I just wished it had been served warmnOur waiter only checked in with us to take our orders and then ask if we wanted the bill or dessert I had to ask for a refill on my waternnThe food was ok the service was bad I believe in second chances and I have another Groupon so I will be back Maybe it will be different if I try a weekday lunch I will make sure to make reservations thoughnrolls eyes
