Always a disappointment
1 Star Rating: Not Recommended

02/24/2008 Posted by Aeval999

I am vegan, and I like to sit at a bar, alone, and enjoy a meal. Naturally, Kate's seems like it would be a good fit. However, I have eaten here four times, and it is always a disappointment. I am done giving this place "second" chances. The ambiance is awful (lights too bright), the food is the equivalent of vegetarian "junk/fast food"-- nothing noteworthy in the least, they have a crappy wine selection, and when I am the only person sitting at the bar, I don't feel I should have to waive the bartender down to ask for another drink...nor do I feel that when I place an order and the bartender mistakenly packs it "to go", and I say no, i am eating it here, that they should sloppily scrape the dish out of the to-go container onto a plate right in front of me... go back to the kitchen and plate it properly! I gave the place the benefit of the doubt at first, but no more. Kate's is consistently bad, and I will not be going back.

Insider Tips

Save Money

For brunch, $8.95 gets you a glass of fresh-squeezed juice, beer, wine, screwdriver or bloody mary, bottomless coffee or tea and a choice of entrees: pancakes, huevos rancheros, omelettes and more. For only $6.95, get coffee, eggs any style or tofu scramble, with home fries, toast and an un-sausage patty.
