The founder of Roscoe's (Chicken & Waffles) would vomit.

I mistakenly visited the Lure Lakebar and was assaulted by a repugnant sauce masquerading as mustard. Not only was the vile creation spread over my food, but for the next four and a half hours after the assault, I could not erase the taste from my taste buds. I wanted to call the cops, but I'm sure they would have regarded this as a repeat offense. I felt ill most of the day! What a horrible excuse for a dish!

Chicken & waffles? NOT! The chicken was microwaved pre-breaded, pre-flavored, pre-mature, and most definitely pre-tending to be chicken. Chickon begon! OMG!! But wait there's more: I had to pay for it!! Twenty-six ($26) for that sorry excuse for food and the attendant did not once offer a refund or a customer accommodation of any sort. Customer service much? Lure Lakebar, Wherever you drew your inspiration from, it had to have been from the Minnesota Loon and its' special waffles that it leaves lovingly behind wherever it roams!

If I needed to begin on the waffle, I would have needed to finish it first. Not only did the waffle arrive as if it had just been removed from the plate of a former customer, but it was one quarter short of a full Belgian waffle. And to clean my palate, a side of burnt Rosemary twig. WTH! What a horrid experience of a dish. Wet dirt under gravy would have easily won this contest! Fire the flippin' chef!.. In other parts of the restaurant/bar, I hear the salad, steak, and fish is fabulous! But, how can you ruin salad; save for brown lettuce, withering tomatoes, and a few sad cucumbers.

But I'm conflicted, because the Craig Helenske construction coupled with the Anna Sanders design and decor, layout, and outdoor dining area suggested a better experience! I expected the food to match that pain-staking detail and embellish the view of the lake to satisfy the want of a complete experience! Just throw the whole place away? No! Get rid of that poor, insulting, excuse for chicken and waffles and never serve that mustard sauce to anyone except for death row inmates!

Feeling Robbed,

Jerry

P.S. It was seriously horrible!! Do Better!! I depend on my local restaurants to deliver, so I can continue supporting them! I will be back to check out your music scene as well!
