"Our experience at this place has been terrible. We arrived at the place and immediately noticed that the tables were not clean and there were almost no servers on the floor. We decided to still give the place a try due to the beautiful pictures we saw of the food served here. We got seated, and the server explained that we needed to order through a qr code, which is already inconvenient enough, but also we had a sign at out table that we had to flip up if we needed assistance. We proceed to order our meal and think it won't take long. We ordered the eggs Benedict on an enligh muffin, and it was quite tasty. It was out within ten minutes. The same can't be said about the rest of our meal, which took over an hour to get. My partner ordered chicken and waffles. He received half a waffle, which was dryer than the Sáhara desert, and two chicken tenders that were lightly tossed in a sauce. The chicken was also dry. We couldn't fathom how that small of a meal could take so long to make. However, it is even more unfathomable that it tasted horrendous. Finally, we ordered the Nutella stuffed French toast, which took another 30 minutes. Once it arrived, it was clear that the bottom of it was burnt, and the French toast wasn't even stuffed with Nutella as promised. After experiencing such inconveniences, we were sure that we would never come back. Apparently, the table next to us had the same idea. They complained to the manager that their food had not arrived after waiting an hour and a half. The guy on the table also complained that his meal was made improperly and the rest of his family didn't receive their meals. He ended up getting his bill paid for by the house. After hearing what had happened, we also complained about the service we received and were told we could get a free milkshake, and that's it. We agreed, not knowing that the milkshake would also take a long time to come out. Overall, the experience was terrible, and I would not recommend this place to my worst enemy. I suggest having more staff in the kitchen if you have such a big establishment and not offering such a variety of food. This place is only good if you care about aesthetics, nothing else."
"This was our first time and I couldn't have been more disappointed. If your coming for a cool insta pic with neon signs and pretty decor, then it might be worth it but they will probably be out of half the drinks you want to order. They have large menu that you are able to see and order only by a qr code. A significant amount of food and drinks were not available. There was 1 server for multiple dining areas. There was 1 bartender who was making the detailed bathtub drinks as well as cleaning tables and helping to seat guests. There was a line waiting to be seated when we left and multiple tables that needed food removed and to be cleaned. The food runner brought the food and we realized we had no silverware. They have a card on the table to put up If you need something but it might as well not have been there at all. We went up to the bartender to get our silverware. I then realized that my chicken and waffle sandwich that should have had bacon and the hot honey on it did not. I kept the sign up but after waiting a while, was hungry and just ate it. Our drinks were also empty and we just wanted tap water. You might have also had to order that through the app but it would have just been nice to talk to someone to get silverware, water and a corrected food item. I should have known how the experience was going to be when I walked through the bar area to the bathroom and my feet stuck to the floor and then went to the bathroom and it was already dirty at 12pm. Not worth the trip, can't recommend. Sidenote: is wheelchair accessible but does not have the button to open the door."
"Place 2 Be is a delight for those seeking a fun dining experience with generously sized drinks. The vibrant atmosphere creates a fantastic backdrop, making it an Instagram dream for photo enthusiasts. Whether you're there for the ambiance or the photo-worthy drinks, it promises an enjoyable time out."
"Stopped in here for the first time. We were a party of four. The server was great at first with answering our questions. This place is like a breakfast disaster. The food came out at all different times with the last person being served their breakfast while the first person served was finished. I tried the Chicken & Waffle Mini Sliders…I’d never order that again…the chicken was the size of chicken nuggets with so much breading and no meat. We ordered the Classic Eggs Benedict and the eggs were fully cooked through (not poached). The Fried Chicken and Waffle looked presentable, tasted decent compared to the other items we ordered. This place is just for show, not quality. I wouldn’t come back here for breakfast again. We asked for waters and never received them. We saw the girl who was supposed to be our server sitting outside in her car playing on her phone with the door open hanging out. We had bottles of water in our bags and filled our own cups. She never came back with waters or to ask how the food was. You’re paying for the hype of this place, nothing else."
