 Why can't it be that there was a simple miscommunication ,- the waiter  thought the chef said mayonnaise when in reality he said bearnaise. . . ?

Especially if you sent him to ask if its mustard which like bearnaise is usually yellow, mayo is usually white IME

That actually makes sense, though you would hope the staff is trained better and would know what is on the menu.
I only paid 15% by switching to dansdeals

Its new, give them time.
IMHO they should never open with "paper menus" etc. They could have a soft opening and when they have their act together open properly.

Tell them you tried to change the power supply and it didnt work. ( Im pretty certain its not the power supply)
Get a replacement asap.

Take any 12v plug that is floating around your house to test it.

Thanks, I tried another 12v plug, (i really didn't have many- i found just 1 after looking at many power adapters at home,) and it still didn't work. trying to get a replacement...

to be quite honest, i highly doubt there was mayonnaise on your steak

It's possible, and quite probable, that many people in lakewood don't 'get' fine dining. i find they usually like their meat sweet.


its extremely unlikely they subbed mayonnaise for bearnaise, especially so early in the game.

of course thats what happened, or the customer misunderstood the waiter. one of the two. thats what ive been saying the whole time...

id like to apologize for doubting Dave321 . While it wasnt techincally a mayo, it was pretty close.  i emailed the restaurant and they responded about the asian marinated steak, It has Wasabi aioli as a dressing; if you don't like it please tell your waiter not to decorate the plate with it.

IME all the lakewood cleaners blame the customer when something goes wrong. I make my way around, when I get sick of one I move to the next...
The question is who charges the least per shirt in lakewood?

Is that the deal always? (I use them but never had the heart to study the bill) I should always send a pair of pants together with my ~15 shirts.... Gotta do the math.
