text: I do not understand the hype for Ds although I guess their beer selection does rule If selection drives your decisionmaking definitely head on over However if you would like to receive anything other than slow resentful service from your waitstaff or food that is anything above subpar head on by without stopping I have lived just down Forbes from Ds for yrs and walk down there with friends a lot during the summer and early fall I am also a former bartender and waitress so I can say with experience and certainty that I have received just downright terrible service there about of the times I have been Once a friend and I stopped in for lunch with her kids and ended up waiting for the check minutes after we would asked to receive it We were both fuming and the waitress just looked annoyed and kept ignoring us to chat with her buddy Another time my husband and I came in minutes before the ordering deadline and watched as the waitress did not approach our table until exactly the cutoff time She proudly announced that we could no longer order food we just wanted pretzels for gods sake Food is pretty lackluster although it is a nice touch that they have veggie dogs Upstairs expect about the same level of service with a douchy element of annoyed resentment from the bartender along with even douchyier clientele nnI know Ds is a favorite neighborhood place but I am tired of the abuse from waitstaff who look annoyed that I am even there If this was just a onceinawhile occurrence I would be forgiving but years is long enough to judge
