Let me start by saying that I'm not one to write reviews or leave bad feedback, but this is a special case. I created an account with Citysearch so I could share the horrible experience my girlfriend and I had at Annie's. I was really excited for Annie's to open. Don't get me wrong, I loved Good Friends and went fairly often as the location is about 6 blocks from our house. I never went to Annie's when it was on 8th, but had heard so many good things that I was anxious to go to the new one. The anticipation is where the good times end with this place. We were seated immediately, which we appreciated because we had an appoinment to keep an hour and a half from our arrival. We figured we'd allowed plenty of time to have a nice lunch and still be on time. Wrong. I ordered a veggie burger with mushrooms and onions and my girlfriend ordered a salad with chicken salad on it. After 45 MINUTES, we got a roast beef sandwich and a grilled turkey and whatever. When our waitress reappeared another 5 minutes later we explained that this wasn't our food, to which she replied, " Oh, this must have come up the same time as yours.", and then picked up the plates and plunked them down on another table next to us. I'm sure those people were pleased, too. She then went to get our order and was gone another 10 MINUTES. By that time we had to leave so we could get home, pick up our kitten and get to the Vet. We asked her to box it up and get the check. Another 10 MINUTES went by before she delivered our box lunch and bill. We left a tip anyway, and in hindsight, I'm mad we did. We got home and went to put the food in the fridge, only to discover they got the order wrong. Again. We will NEVER go back, and I, for one, will vigorously discourage any of my friends from patronizing this restaurant.

Pros: none

Cons: service, good luck getting what you ordered in a timely fashion.
