Borough Food and Drink
12 East 22nd Street (between Park & Broadway)

I was invited to lunch by a friend and he suggested Borough Food and Drink. I've not heard of the place, but walked down anyway. The place was half empty for brunch on a Sunday and we took an outside table.

It took ages to get service and the waitress just seemed hyper and confused...can anyone say meth? Ugh...that was a bad start. Took them 15 minutes to bring coffee -- and the restaurant was half empty! They gave us each a hard-boiled egg as a freebie...great...

After 45 minutes of waiting for our food, we started to get impatient. Every 5 minutes we got the "it'll be 2 more minutes" line from various members of the useless staff. Others who were seated near us -- who came 10-30 minutes after us -- were already being served. Ridiculous!

After another 10 minutes, I said screw this. I'm not waiting an hour. The manager rushed after us saying they are just about to serve. Yeah, right. We walked out rather upset...and had to look for another place.

AVOID!!!!!!!!!!!
