[QUOTE="Pigsticker, post: 47157, member: 209"] Went on a nice date with my wife this past weekend without the kids and I have to say I was really really disappointed in the food at the new Minot Country Club. A place that is trying to impress and exude swankiness, it sure was awful. Both the food and the service. I ordered a drink and asked for Jameson, waitress told me that her boss said that if people want to drink Irish whiskey to go to Ebeneezers. "Ok...I'll have a Pendleton, you have that right?" Ordered a salad with dressing. Wrong dressing shows up and is spilled all over the salad so I mention it and they bring me a new dressing but left the salad covered in the dressing I didn't order. I finally had to say something about it and they brought me a fresh salad. Got my rib-eye and it was literally the thickness of a cowboy boot insert. I almost ordered it rare because I know how almost everybody loves to overcook steaks. Waitress informed me they nail their steaks everytime so I ordered medium rare. What shows up? Well done shoe leather, thin shoe leather to be exact with a half rotten sprig of rosemary on top. I've had thicker steaks at 4bears buffet room. I also asked for a side of horseradish, when it didn't show I asked one of the servers again for it and they brought me ranch. By this time it was almost comical but then I remembered how much I was gonna have to pay for the meal. When the server asked how my meal was I told her that the steak was completely overdone. She came back out and said "the cook says sorry" and walked away. Now, I don't take freebies too often and usually chalk up experiences like this as occasional misfortunes but they didn't even offer to give a dessert, $10 off the meal or anything. In the end I paid $34 for a steak that should have been $14 at Montana Mikes. The salads were another $6 and the drinks were expensive. In the end with tip, (and I always tip just because its rude not to and I'm not that kinda guy) it was $120 for the most lousy meal I've had in a long time. To be fair my wife had the scallops and they were okay but not par for the price. Appetizers seemed to be moderate as well. If you live here in Minot and want a good classy meal, this is not the place to go. Better to stick with 10 N Main where if your steak isn't done right (which never happens) they'll make it right. On a side note, I had a great time with my wife and it was nice to have a dinner with just her and I, despite the depressing dining experience. [/QUOTE]
