Was Gina Irvine at Gates Restaurant Bar a mag?
We generally love this place and often order salads or sandwiches. Their wings are also quite good, and we had a fantastic experience during the BOGO burger nights the last time we visited. However, last night we ordered our burgers medium, but they came out well done and very dry. Perhaps it was just an off night? We'll definitely give them another chance. View all feedback.
What Kenny Klein dislikes about Gates Restaurant Bar:
First, I ordered a martini, only to find out they were completely out of olives for the entire bar—at 7 PM! Then I ordered an appetizer and specifically asked for it to be brought out before the entrees. Instead, the mediocre wings arrived just 1.5 minutes before the main dishes, and only 4 out of 6 wings were actually sauced.
As for dessert, I ordered key lime pie, which the menu didn’t mention contained nuts. Howe... View all feedback.
The food and service were excellent! The kale salad was bursting with amazing flavors! The veggie burger was also delicious, and the ribs and vegan bowl were quite good too. Our only complaint was that the steak was slightly overcooked. After dinner, we enjoyed some pinball!
The waitress was very nice . I waited for a cheeseburger for almost 1/2 hour after everyone was served their meals . We also found out the next day Wednesday night was a buy one burger get another one for free... Gates did take my burger off the bill which I appreciate. Getting water in our glasses etc wasn't happening.Over all we had a good time but it just seemed there wasn't enough help . My wife did enjoy her tacos .

As for dessert, I ordered key lime pie, which the menu didn’t mention contained nuts. However, it was covered in almonds, and my wife has a nut allergy, so we had to send it back. This place really needs improvement. I’d rate the service a 5 out of 10, the food a 6 out of 10, and the overall experience a disappointing 3 out of 10. I recommend looking elsewhere. I’ve posted photos so you can see for yourself. Fix your restaurant; customers deserve better.
Just okay. First time eating here, on a weekday night. Food was very average. I ordered a crispy chicken bowl. The chicken was tasteless and a bit greasy. The rice was barely warm. The veggies were okay. Nothing special. My companion had a burger. She said it was pretty greasy, and overloaded with sauce. I guess another patron may enjoy that though. The table was so sticky the menus were sticking to. I didn't put my phone on the table because it was so sticky. My companion had to return her first beverage because the glass was very dirty. Something was stuck on it. Our server was very friendly and professional. I don't think we'll be back.
