Undo's At MegoMeet

[Random Axe]

Austin and I marvelled at the cook, who came out briefly sporting a sleeveless olive t-shirt and a very cool 70's porn moustache. If we had elevated the complaints while we were there, they may have unleashed Harry Reems on us.

Y'all should have driven to Buffalo with us and had some of them famous chicken wings! Good stuff.

While I missed the company at Undo's it sounds like cutting out early wasn't a bad idea for the tummy.

At a minimum, it's a strong bargaining position to get better food and service from Undo's. There was a 30 minute wait between Cheese bread. They kept saying it's in the oven. Well it doesn't take a half hour to make it, and they knew we were coming. Hopefully the prospect of losing out on a $1000 plus bill will make them re-evaluate their position.

[stabilio]

Honestly the past couple of years their attitude towards us has been less than customer friendly. 4 items on the menu is unacceptable, especially when we've had 10 or more for 6 years. I think it might be time to un-do Undo's. I'm no fan of Hoss's, but they always have a great attitude. If nothing else, we could switch Hoss's and Undo's on the itinerary, or as someone above mentioned, and Italian buffet might work out as well.

PS - The Italian Hoagie is pretty decent, for a lower priced option.

I've only been in Hoss's once so I'm not extremely familiar with the place. But from what I recall you pay your bill separately anyway so that should not be a problem. If they can accomodate our group, I don't think it would be a terrible idea to switch Undo's to early bird night and Hoss's to Saturday night. Then everyone could order whatever the hell they want at Undo's and they can't do anything about it. And we should be able to order anything on the menu at Hoss's as well. Seems like a good option if nothing else pans out.

...We were told bread was scarce and she didn't know if she could get any for our table. When we asked for more salad she grabbed a half uneaten bowl from another table... she brought us uneaten bread from another table as well...

OK Dave are you sure that is accurate? Did she give you salad in a 1/2 full big Plastic bowl or in a small Styrafoam bowl? Was the Cheesey Bread/Pizza Bread on a special plate/platter and some were taken already or was it a slice bitten into? You might be confusing the serving bowls/platters with the individual ones.

Hey,
Geez, I did not realize it was that bad.
I will contact corporate on Monday and discuss with them these concerns. Our waitress seemed to be OK, we joked with her at first and she seemed to loosen up. However, it seems that, for the most part, everyone was not happy.
I will tell them we want a menu of about 6 to 9 items, prices based on what they actually are, not an average, and possibly some wait-staff that gives a damn and not being a**holes. I will see how it works.
However, I will also start looking at other sites. I have a year.
Sounds like chicken parmasean and calzones must be included. The steak seems to have been OK. 5 cheeze lasagna is out, as well as the chicken dish I had chosen. How was the Italian hogie?

Sorry to hear Undos was a bad experience. If you don't want to deal with the hassle anymore, but still want Italian, I recommend the aforementioned Olive Garden, or Greco's on Washington Ave. I believe they have a buffet.

[noelani72]

Well if it's being a jerk? Then I gotta what I gotta do... our service was aweful! I don't mean kinda bad, I mean rediculous with a side of health code violations... We were told bread was scarce and she didn't know if she could get any for our table. When we asked for more salad she grabbed a half uneaten bowl from another table... she brought us uneaten bread from another table as well...

This was the straw for me. I love you guys and I think it's a great thing to all eat together, but we don't all eat together, and the food is marginal (when there were better choices) at best and the service is bung hole terrible. I won't be eating there next year... I may stop by and say hello, but I will be "eating" somewhere else.

-Dave

Eewwwww Dave! Seriously? They took food of another table, right in front of your eyes, and gave it to you?
Mkay - who's contacting corporate with this thread?

[johnmiic]

Here are pics of their menu, they don't post it on their own website and this is kind'a blurry.

Undos - Weirton | Urbanspoon

Here is the page for the branch we go to:

Undo's Famiglia Ristorante - Wheeling | Urbanspoon

I had the steak and was pretty happy with that. I think they limited the menu too much. 6 choices would be better than 4. I think the mistake they make every year is they know we are coming on Saturday night but they don't have enough help.

[megoscott]

1 highway exit up the road you have a very nice Olive Garden. I went out of my way to eat there twice last time I was there.

There is no undos and Undo's.

[David Lee]

and this has been a tradition for how many years?
Our group isn't rowdy and no one gets drunk and obnoxious.
The vibe of this thread leans heavy towards a common displeasure of service...maybe tradition should be broken?
I don't want to be a jerk with Undo's...but Ron said exactly how I felt.

Why does there need to be an average price? Are they too lazy to add up meals? I know some got water. Why pay for something you didin't order.

So they have to work a little. Won't hurt them. Next year we just all show up at the same time and not as a group. Then what do they do?

Hey,
The price - what they told me they do is average the cost of all the meals and then make the price the same. I know that the steak usually goes for about $21 and the Italian sandwich goes for $14, so the average with drink and tip was $19. Next year I will tell them not to do that since more people probably paid more than those who paid less. Chris DVM

[noelani72]

I have been looking over their website...and I cannot find a menu so we can discuss options.
Am I just missing it??
