Probably NOT the best burger in town

by jlevine1234 at Citysearch

We had our first and last experience with Darla's today. Though the staff was reasonably nice and service quick, the food that arrived on the table was, well, just lousy.

Beef burgers were undercooked. Turkey burgers had strong, odd spicing - way overspiced with something like Tarragon. The fries were greasy to the point of being disgusting, and the kids chicken nuggets made no pretense of being prepared in the restaurant - they were clearly a common store brand of frozen, dinosaur-shaped things.

And to top it all off, this was way overpriced for a meal no better than the average McDonald's.

• Cons: Expensive, Sub-par food, Lousy ambience

Greasy, Greasy, Greaseball!!

I went to this hamburger joint and could not have had a worse experience. The servers ignored us for several minutes, then the woman who attended my group was rude and sarcastic. The food was oily beyond belief, such that the bread was soaked through and fell away when you picked up your sandwich. The fries were limp, oil-soaked and stale. We threw our sandwiches in the trash.

Utterly indedible.

bad service

by luckybutt at Citysearch

They are suppose to have the best caesar salad. The portion was small, lettuce was limp, and to top it off the service was bad. After not getting some of the items that were ordered, we reminded her that we had some additional. And she replied OH?..and acted like it was our fault. The waitress with the brown short hair was very rude. I would not go back again for the limp salad and rude waitperson.

• Pros: not crowded
• Cons: rude service, limp salad, small portions

bummer brunch

by Emanangan at Citysearch

I stepped into Darla's for brunch and had a nice peppy server. I ordered the vegetarian omelet with avocado. The food was adequate not generous portions (understandable during recession) HOWEVER the potatoes were undercooked and cold, english muffin (a default choice since they didn't have "homemade muffins" as stated on menu) was cold, the server never returned with hot sauce(only the tabasco brand) and ketchup (I got it myself). THE WORST PART:There were bits of bacon hidden in the veggie topping (of half raw mushrooms and poorly cut tomatoes) on my omelet-- it was supposed to be vegetarian!@ Basically a problem with their brunch cooks-- but a problem nonetheless. Haven't tried them for dinner, but now probably won't.

• Pros: friendly servers, good location
• Cons: slim picks 4 vegetari, small portions
