Review


There are too many good restaurants in the area to waste time here. I was happy to find no line for Saturday brunch, but soon learned why. The service was no good, we sat for about 10 min. before being acknowledged, and were never offered anything to drink but water. Our server continued service at this poor level through the meal, and there were only five tables counting ours. The menu boasts a variety of gluten free options (a fact that escaped the server), but unfortunately the food is a terrible disappointment. I ordered the Huevo Rancheros, and what I received was just two eggs slapped onto a huge pile of black beans. The 'spicy jalapeño' salsa was very sweet (??), but not spicy at all...I'm actually not sure they didn't accidentally give me mango salsa instead. Also, the menu advertises guacamole with the dish, but doesn't mention that it's only a tablespoon, and consists of a couple large pieces of tomato with a splash of avocado for color.

In short, if you need to eat gluten free, and simply can't wait in a line for a good restaurant...there's always Slide Inn, just don't come with any good expectations.
