Only word to describe my experience here. Poor, which is unfortunate.
The service was poor. Half the time I felt invisible. The waitress didn't come around very often after the first time. She wasn't sure what a martini with a twist meant, nor did she know what an Aperol Spritz was (calling it an apple spritz). I don't blame her for not knowing what a cocktail or a drink is, especially if she's not of age, but I couldn't help but laugh at that.
_ vodka martini with a twist $18?!??!
What IS ridiculous though? I got charged $18 for a martini. $13 for the greygoose vodka martini-up, which was no big deal. Then there's ANOTHER $5 charge for " *special prep* with a twist." I literally got charged an extra $5 for a lemon peel. I asked the waitress why this was, and she said it was to make it "up." An "up" martini means chilled... Ridiculous to pay $18 for a martini, even in an airport. Is this actually normal? I know what a martini charge is but kinda seems like $13 should've been the final price... right? Maybe it was sticker shock but I still think &18 was insanely overpriced for a martini.
_ quinoa chop with grilled chicken $17
So the food itself was FINE. The salad tasted good, but $5.50 for a sorry excuse of chicken? Whatever. That didn't make me as disappointed as the fact that it barely had any cheese, and it was missing the spiced chickpeas and carrots. The lemony dressing was good, but in the end, it was more so lettuce than anything else. The amount of any other ingredients that actually did make it in my quinoa chop was very minimal. Not worth the $17.
I'll be going to DFW airport quite often for the unforeseeable future, but I won't be going to Bar Louie again. Not for the price, nor for the service.
