I knew they were in trouble from the start. We went opening night and after what took forever with the slow service we went to pay. The cashier could not get the scanner to read my card. She swiped and swiped and swiped. She called her manager over to see what was wrong and he saw after another attempt she was holding my card upside down so the magetic strip was in her hand instead of going through the reader. He told her to flip the card and try it again. Which she does...the wrong direction. So the card is still upside down just now facing the opposite direction. I realized then if they hadn't taught their workers how to scan a card then things could only go downhill from there.

Not even a road is it? I went over it a few months ago, I think it's just a dirt path more than anything.

I was told there is a dispute over the responsibility to repair/maintain.

Wow, but not surprising.
Let's build this beautiful new development, but ruin the peripheral aesthetics by bickering over fixing 300' of a shit road....sounds like Starkville.

I ate there one time in the 6 years that I have lived in Starkville. I was not impressed. The service was meh. The food was cold. The price was too high for what I got.
I'll give Moe's BBQ a shot a few weeks after it's opened.

Moe's looks like it will be a popular place, with good food.

What happened to Rosie Baby's? I loved that place!

Oh dear god. I don't know if there is enough bandwidth capability on all the major MSU message boards combined to allow a proper discussion of how bad that place sucks.

Actually, raising the minimum wage would have minimal effect on actual sit down restaurants where the majority of staff work for tips and therefore are not subject to the minimum wage laws. Their only guaranteed income will still be the $2.13 per hour or whatever it is now. The places that where the owners would really hurt would be the counter order places like your McAllister's, Little Dooey's, and soon to be Moe's BBQ. But your point is well taken.

That place has so much potential, but they just don't have a clue on how to run a restaurant.

Went to school here and have now lived here almost 9 years and have never stepped foot there. Of course, I've never eaten Petty's either, although I plan to change that soon.

There is a legitimate possibility that it is a front for money laundering. There is never anyone there. But it has been open for over two decades now under the same ownership.

Yea, you need to fix that with the quickness. Petty's is top notch.

We only go during crawfish season generally. It's good when they are fresh and piping hot, duh I know, but I always have to tell the server that's what we want or they bring us the dregs by default.

Agreed, I've always liked Pettys. My favorite bbq though was Three Little Pigs. Their food was amazing, but their service moved at a snail's pace...another example of someone who didn't know how to run a restaurant.

Was never crazy about three little pigs. I loved me some grumpy's before they went straight to hell. Last time I was there my sandwich was on load bread, baked beans were cold, and my order of onion rings was 3 tings.

Is Jack Salmons still around? Those catfish nuggets were legit!

Back when it was open the first time a couple of us went there for dinner one night and it took 45 minutes to get our drinks after waiting for 15 minutes just for somebody to take our drink order. By this time we were hard-headed and decided to time the food. The food took 90 minutes from the time we ordered until it was on our table with no sign of the waiter during this time to refill drinks. That's the only time I ever got the ass with somebody in a restaurant. I paid in cash, asked for change and said "Here's your penny." walked out and have never and will never be back.
