I'll forgive the lukewarm food since they were having a power outage (which the hostess failed to inform me of when I was seated), but the pulled pork was super greasy and fatty, plus I had pieces of bone in several bites. The slaw on top of the sandwich was the best part of the meal. I guess Brian Malarkey has a double standard - one for his own restaurants and a much higher one for the chefs he's judging on his TV show.

You are seated at 715 the meal is served one hour later one order is wrong and then it takes another half an hour for it to be corrected. Not very good. Oh yes there was a twelve dollar deduction for a long wait.
Okay,so I bought a couple Daily Deal Groupons for 15 worth 30 at Gingham. I called at 10am to make reservations for brunch. I asked what was the latest I could get a reservation for. She told me brunch was until 3p. I said How about 2p,she said great and took my name. We arrived at 205p and were notified brunch was over at 2pm. I was like "I callled and made a reservation! " She said well i guess we could get you some stuff ala carte, I'm like wtf? She asked if we wanted regular dining and we said yes. I ordered a full rack of ribs and a full beef brisket figuring that would be plenty of food and the bbq is what Brian was known for ,per my wife. Well,the ribs and brisket were tasteless,the beans similar to 50 cent vandekamps with onion rings on top,the simple salad was red lettuce with ranch, I liked the fried brussel sprouts.I ordered a pomegranite root beer and it was pomegranite soda,I don't see where they get root beer but it had no carbonation and it was so-so. The pictures of the cows were cool and I liked the decor and the comfy couch in the bar. When I asked for my check ,the waitress asked if I wanted another soda and I said sure. She brought me my check and soda and had added another 4 to my bill for a 2nd soda. My bill then came to 45 and change ,minus my 30 voucher. so 45. I told her to take the 2nd soda back and add it to her tip. I left 50 total so she got like 9 or 20% for what I thought was okay at the best service.
Tried several things on the menu but the Brussels Sprouts were my favorite.
