"I try to come in like once or twice a month for dinner usually. The waitresses are awesome and usually on top of it. But this time I was extremely shocked at what I saw walking in the door and absolutely no excuse for what basically smacked me in the face. This place is known for its pies, well the whole case was empty. I thought oh maybe the cooling system broke. But when I asked the lady behind the counter if everything was alright? She asked what I meant like it was nothing. I said no pies? She states we are out of pies. That right there is when I should have left. But knowing the adventurous individual that I am had to go down this rabbit hole. So I get seated and my usual Waitress tells me that she just made a fresh batch of ice tea and I was like well alright that 's a good start. I look at the menu pick what I want....now mind you no where is it stated that they are out of anything....except Ice Cream. My waitress comes back and I said I 'd like the Prime Rib. She states oh we are out and only have enough for sandwiches...ok ok yes I understand they run out of this item so not really shocked. I tell her I 'll need another minute....15min later she comes back and have decided to also have a backup to my backup just in case. Which is a good thing. I ask for the Chicken Florentine....nope out, ok this really is beginning to suck and I 'm ready to leave. I even told the waitress that they just need to put a closed sign on the door stating closed till further notice. The reasoning was they got a small truck. I asked how long this issue has been going on and she said over 2 weeks....2 weeks wow! Apparently the reason is that supposedly Shari 's Café was recently sold and bought by who knows who. But it is obvious they have no clue what they are doing owning a chain of this stature. Even before the papers were signed they should of had all their vendors in place. So now my only option which isn 't what I wanted because its a rip off for what they sell it for....was the sirloin, yes I love my steak but the sirloin was the size of a deck of cards for almost $20.00. Oh and don 't get me started on the sides. The waitress was like you want mashed potatoes and steamed broccoli and I said no, I 'd like the Mac and Cheese, OUT, ok Broccoli Casserole and she said OUT. I was like let me guess my only options are steamed broccoli and mashed potatoes. She said pretty much. Now mind you their Fryer is also down and broken and waiting to be replaced. I didn 't realize I was sitting at my mom 's table where what is put in front of you is what you get. I am paying for this service and I can 't even get a decent selection of food to choose from because the new owner can 't even run this chain properly. I will say to make it up to me and other customers the waitress gave a card for a free piece of pie....when they get the world famous pies.....but wait....there is a catch....yes nothing is for free. In small print under the free piece of pie it says with a minimum purchase of $15.99. There you have it folks. Till this place can get its act together AVOID this place. I have a feeling its going to be a long road or full on closure this place....maybe its the management and they just have given up but something needs to change drastically!!!"
