Re: new restaurant in Roosevelt Field
the big diner place?
with all of the gold decorations?
we went there for lunch one day - the food was good, the service stunk, the dessert was super-yummy!
it's owned by the same people as the cheesecake factory

Does that mean similar two hour wait times?
I can never go to the Cheesecake Factory cause the wait is just too long for my taste. I can't wait for more than 20 minutes to eat somewhere..

There was no wait when we had lunch there, but I could totally see there being a ridiculous wait on nights & weekends.

Re: new restaurant in Roosevelt Field
We went to Grand Luxe twice last week! I think I'm addicted. It is very very similar to Cheesecake. Both times we went the service and food were excellent and ohhh that bread!!

Re: new restaurant in Roosevelt Field
My little sister works there. This is the first waitress job that she nor her family receive any discounts.
Other restaurants she would get 50% offf, family 30% off.

Are you kidding? That is so not right. Not even during a Monday lunch? I worked for Outback Steakhouse all through college and we got half off, but you weren't supposed to get the discount if the restaurant was on a wait (this was never enforced).

AMEN! I feel the same way - I don't think any restaurant is worth waiting as long as I have waited with friends at the Cheesecake Factory.  The wait is why I never go there, but I avoid restaurants in that whole Roosevelt Field/Source mall area on weekends for the same reason.

Same for me.... I despise Cheesecake Factory. I don't think the food is that good to wait 2 hours. I do love Grand Luxe though usually little or no wait and the menu is better IMO.

Re: new restaurant in Roosevelt Field
I've found during the week after 7pm is a good time w/ no wait. We attempted Saturday afternoon, we circled the parking lot and left. Weekends are definitely out for that place unless you want to wait, and when it comes to food, I wait for Noone!
But I must say, its a nice place, and Im on a mission to sit at the bar one day to see the bartender make a particular Martini.
