Garden Club - South San Francisco

I just ate there 20 minutes ago and it’s horrible. My mom and I had linguini mine with Alfredo and hers with pesto and we ate outside.First of all the service was extremely slow and we had to go inside to make sure we weren’t forgotten about.Second the pasta sauces had no taste at all. We had to ask for water refills due to no one coming by.After we paid we walked to our car when I started feeling funny which led to me throwing up all of the food I had just eaten.My mom went in to tell them. All we wanted was our money back. She talked to the manager who didn’t seem apologetic or anything. All she offered was a 5 dollar off coupon for next time we come there. (My mom said it felt like a massive slap in the face cause she’s offering us to come back and eat after I just got sick from their food. My mom told her we are NEVER coming back and left.I hate being rude and never like to leave mean comments/reviews but this was absolutely horrible!

Went for a birthday. First thing we saw was a bunch of drunks yelling at the front of the bar, near the entrance. Came at 11am but needed to wait for 11:30 to get the lunch menu. Despite advertising brunch until 11:30 , that only means breakfast. After ordering, we waited at least 30 more minutes, at most an hour. Practically everyone needed to send their food back for correction. My burger was missing it 's bacon and onions, and I think the patty was unseasoned. Won 't be coming back.

Been wanting to try this establishment! Finally did on Fri. 6-16-2023! Here's my opinion. An old time atmosphere taking me back to the way restaurants use to be. Cathy, our waitress was so sweet and fun to talk to made our stay so pleasant. Food was very home cooked and was prepared in an old fashion inviting way. Would definitely go back. Only one thing bothered me. There's always a flaw in every restaurant. The Calimari appetizers were over priced and the quantity was very disappointing. Frozen rings and two small burnt tentacles did not live up to my expectations! Beside this one point I would rate this place very friendly inviting food but will stay away from the appetizers! Check it out if you like a old style comfortable restaurant. I liked it !

Yum food, pretty good starter bread and nice atmosphere

I asked the server to put the juice in a cup. Instead they poured it on the prime rib which soaked the veges and fries. I didn’t want to hassle them to return it back to the kitchen. I think a server who takes pride in their job and wants good tips needs to “listen” to the customers’ requests, notwithstanding they have other customers to service. The prices have increased substantially and you don’t get dessert included as before. Chinatown has better deals for prime rib, $19.99. Will be going there next time. Ambience isn’t my priority. It’s the service and the bang for the bucks which you don’t get here.
