greasy

by westmorelandite

egg white omlette sitting in a pool of grease. not appealing. Wait staff nice and attentive though. Need to work on food prep. someone ordering egg whites probably doesn't want them bathed in grease.

Do you like mayo and oil?

by esorlien

My fiancee and I went to Springwater Grill tonight hoping to experience another great restaurant in our neighborhood and were completely disappointed.

We were greeted by a server who tried to take our drink order before we were even seated at the table. The rest of the service can't honestly be faulted since they explained they were shorthanded and were obviously sprinting to get to the next table.

We started with the calamari which was fairly tasty except for the cup of lightly spiced, green tinted mayonnaise they served it with. My fiancee ordered the crab cake entree, while I had the rainbow trout. The crab cakes seemed straight from the freezer with a thick breading and deep fried until dark brown. They were enough to turn the stomach. Her rice was blended with what appeared to the same mayo that came with the calamari and finished with two heaping glops of what definitely was the mayo. Her entire plate sat in a puddle of oil.

My rainbow trout was acceptable except for the shear volume of oil it was cooked in. The green beans came out in the consistency you can only expect from the can. My coconut rice came out without the mayo dressing, so I did have something to fill my stomach and absorb the rest of the mess.

The bar area really looks cute and we may stop in for a drink at another time but will never drop $60 for two at this greasy spoon again.

• Pros: Service, happy hour, ambience, parking
