Restaurants to avoid

A question about : Restaurants to avoid

OK, to kick this thread off:

Quincy's in Lisburn - we were kept waiting tonight for 50 minutes, just for a main course of 2 burgers and 2 chicken dishes (which obviously just had to be deep fried).

Also, to the waiter who brought the food:

"May I have a glass of water please?"
"No, ask someone else."

And when the glass of water did arrive, it was thumped down on the table as if they didn't want us bothering them any more.

Avoid!

Best answers:

• Not just that Quincy's - all of them!
  I find it a complete rip off. The food is wick - just a load of deep fried stuff ughhhhh!
  The Early Bird special is not even good value.

• Sorry - should add that although I don't like the food nor do I think it's good value, all of the staff were very nice and provided a good service.
• Half-decent service and less than a 50 minute wait possibly?
• I'm going to disagree with rose999 here........
  Quincy's in Lisburn, the fair few times I have eaten in it has been superb. No long wait, pleasant staff and nothing too much trouble. Sounds like you caught them on a rare off night. Can happen in the best of restaurants :-/
• Well the few times I have tried there the service has been Ok, the food has been poor and its poor value for money.
• i have to add that Quincy's in bangor has also poor quality service and food.. ive been a few times and have never been overly happy .. just to add iam not all that happy JDW'S thats weatherspoons , staff r friendly but food is not good its cheap but not a place for a romantic night out..

  Must agree with you. Have been to Quincy's in Bangor twice - and that was once too many.
• But I would not go to a restaurant for a drink. I would go to a bar.
• Yeah but their prices are usually cheaper than a bar
• As I said earlier ... Quincys sells itself as an American Diner and therefore in an American Diner one would expect to get American Diner style food ... which is not nouvelle or haute cuisine....jeez, next we will be complaining that KFC only sells chicken and that we should avoid Burger King because you can't get a decent steak in it.

  Read what people are saying. Since your post of 23.11.04 no one has complained about the fact that Quincy's is an American Diner, just an american diner that produces poor quality food. Unless you are actually stating that all American Diners sell poor quality food!
• And poor service, which is mostly what my original complaint was about.
• The Planet Spide perchance? ;-)
• Aidsy did say 'Not a place for a romantic night out".
