Anyone liking Table 35?

[nuni]

First of let me say we really wanted to like this place.

Hubby and I went to try it out last night. We ordered the honey walnut prawns and calamari as apps and I got the tri tip sandwich and he had the burger. We thought the food was alright and gave it a 3 out of 5 stars.

Later that night around 8pm I started to feel very full and nauseated. The feeling just would NOT subside so finally at 1:30AM I had to make myself throw up because I wouldn’t be able to sleep if I didn’t. I had to do that a couple of times for the feeling to subside.

Woke up a few minutes ago to the sounds of my husband throwing up downstairs. He said he’d been up since 4am and threw up 3 times among other symptoms. He says he feels better now.

I’ll be calling the hotline.

Interesting, nuni — we went there last Friday for the first time and had two appetizers, including the calamari — which we both love almost everywhere. I had a couple of bites and said, “This doesn’t taste right — I think we should stop eating it.” Bob did — we finished whatever other appetizer we ordered, and went home to cook and eat Swinery food.

The point: When the server asked how everything was, I nicely and jokily told her the truth. Figured they were new and they’d want to know. I said the calamari seemed off (which is why she was getting a plate full to take back.) AND that the drinks were weak (the house special Cosmo for 9 bucks seemed particularly alcohol-deficient.

When the people at the door asked how everything was we both said, “eh!” They did not even act interested — They all smiled and said, “Hope to see you again soon.”

I was not mean about it — or rude; we love eating out and we love West Seattle restaurants and, if anything, we’re too forgiving. If someone told me the food tasted funny and the drinks were weak and I was starting a new enterprise, I’d, gee, comp the drinks, ask if they wouldn’t like to try something else ….feign interest.

This was EARLY Friday before they were crowded (if they get crowded) so they weren’t all busy.

I’m actually sorry they didn’t ask–and I’m especially sorry you guys had such a bad night.

sounds like they need to start reading this forum thread. There is nothing in these reviews that makes me even want to step foot in this place, let alone taste the food. It makes me wonder why they left their last location on the eastside. If they care so little about their customers, why should we care about their restaurant. We all had such high hopes.

one the other hand… i spoke with someone whose food sense i trust… who took out of town guests there a week or two ago and had nothing but good things to say about the place…

the televisions blaring sports are enough to turn me off.. so i will never know…

i do wonder why they are not more responsive to customer complaints tho.

I know charlabob to be all the best cliches about an eccentric crank… and if they didn’t respond to her comments about the food … i am unsure whose would get attention…
