So, I was in Talarico’s this weekend and found the service to be pretty lame. I’ve never had poor service there before, so this was somewhat of a surprise.
I sat at the bar and just wanted to order a beer and some slices to go. The place was not busy at all, maybe 5 people sitting at the huge bar. Waited 10 minutes for someone to acknowledge my existence. There appeared to be quite a few staff working, but no one would even make eye contact.
Once the pizza arrived and my beer was finished, I waited another 10 minutes till the bartender came over to give me the tab. All the bar staff seemed to be congragating on the opposite side of the bar, chatting with each other as though they had nothing better to do.
The pizza will probably keep me coming back, especially now that they allow babies, but something about the place does rub me the wrong way. Sorta feels like the lackluster frat dude kind of places I try to avoid in Fremont. Wish their pizza wasn’t so damn good!
