When the food finally came out, it was cold. The waiter only brought out 2 chips & pickles for a 6 person table which was gone quickly and never refilled. We usually have a great experience at BRQ but were pretty disappointed this time.

We’re sorry we let you down this visit. The long wait, cold food, and lack of chips and pickle refills for your table fell short of the experience you should expect from us.

We went for Labor Day, and the service was reallllllly slow! They need to double up on servers when there is a holiday, and they offer a special menu. Just a thought.
