no seating available for the black man.... golden west style

went when restaurant was half packed and was told that there will be a 20 minute sit time....with empty seats visible. did not get it at first, so i was like well let me just head on back to good old fell's point (home). on way called the restaurant and asked if i could get to take my food to go. was told yes and i ordered the drew special (vegan). turned back and went to the restaurant and the same racially challenged hostessl told me that "we do not take orders to go". i got vexed and stated that i had just called and placed my order. then another lady overheard me while she was standing by the kitchen hall and asked what the problem was. she proceeded to tell me that they will make my food and that i will have to wait. so i sat on their crunchy benches seeing all the caucasians walking in being greeted with smiles and even saw one dude being waited on who was alone and was not told of the waiting time by the same old racially challenged hostess. finally my food came and the racially challenged hostess brought it to me. but i freaked out and on my way out i threw it coz i was like highly doubtful of the integrity of my food. i encourage all minorities to avoid or abort supporting such establishments. i also encourage all positive souls who are not minorities to avoid that place. one love.
- Pros: vegan selections
- Cons: ethnic profiling
Bad service
by zoof at Citysearch
We went to Golden West Cafe one weekday for lunch and had the worst service (we?ve been going there since they were a hole in the wall). We arrived before noon specifically because we have a 2-1/2 year old and wanted to avoid a long wait and the subsequent toddler meltdown. We were seated and our orders were taken quickly enough but we sat for more than 45 minutes waiting while other tables were getting their food (our waiter apparently forgot to enter our order into the system). He apologized repeatedly but offered no comps and would not answer a direct question as to how soon our food was coming. Finally we left before our food arrived. My son had the predicted meltdown as we were leaving. I wrote the restaurant with my complaints but very surprisingly, they did not deign to respond. Ever since they moved to the bigger place, service has been poor and the food quality has steadily gone downhill. Never going there again.
- Pros: food's ok
- Cons: service is bad, bad, bad
Great food, Mickey is a great server
by Ijustwannadance1 at Citysearch
The food here is wonderful and afforable and the atmosphere is tops. Yes, I have hear that things aren't the same there as they used to be, but it is a great place to go for a burrioto or burger and the salads are excellent. Skip drinks here and go to the Dogwood if you are interested in cocktails, however. There liquor drinks leave something to be desired: liquor.
- Pros: Interesting menu, fantastic appetizers for the college student taste
- Cons: Can be crazy loud on weekends
