Tonight friends & I were headed to Phoenixville for
dinner & a show. Phoenixville is about an hour drive from Ivyland.
|
|
We ate at the Black Lab Bistro
which I was under-whelmed with..
I really wanted to like it but I should have listened to all
those YELP reviews. The company was great.
Food ok. Service poor.
|
|
|
|
|
fortunately I had some nice wines to pair with whatever i ordered
|
|
|
|
skinny rib eye steak cooked okay with a plain baked potato.
They did bring butter/sour cream but they didn’t offer it!
Service was pretty much lacking which is priority of
mine when I eat out.
