text: I'm so torn with this place. Between Cinebarre (the other movie/dinner business in Charlotte) and SMG, I prefer SMG mainly because the sound was a LOT better (nothing is worse than trying to hear the movie over someone chewing). Also the seats are so comfy and I actually like having a button to press for the server to come up. \n\nHowever, both times I've gone now, it's taken the server a ridiculous amount of time to respond to the button. So honestly, I don't really see it as much of a convenience as I would've liked.\n\nThe really bad thing is that both times I've gone, I've gotten pretty shoddy service. The servers are SUPER nice but I don't know if it's them or the kitchen but somewhere between me ordering and it getting to me, something goes wrong.\n\nThe first time I got my food wrong but it took forever to get a server so I just ate it and made sure my tab was done right. \n\nThe second time, our waitress read our order back to us THREE times (and that was at her suggestion, not ours.) Well, first, our food came super quick, but WELL before our drinks. I was halfway through my pizza before I had to stop eating and wait for something to drink. After about 10 minutes, we finally got our drinks. And they were wrong. But we were so thirsty and that had taken so long we just drank them anyway.\n\nLuckily these mistakes weren't terrible. I mean, the wrong food and the wrong drinks were still tasty. But...it's not what I ordered. And it was too difficult to get them justified.\n\nAlso, when they bring the check at the climax of each movie, that's a little more than distracting. I wouldn't mind sitting a little longer at the end in order to pay than have a movie possibly ruined.\n\nOverall, I think if they get all their serving/kitchen/bar kinks worked out, it'd be a preferable place for movies and dinner.
