Mexican restaurant opening soon in downtown Hilo?
#20
If you want to try Pineapples, I suggest you do it fast, because based on our experience tonight, I don't think it'll be around long. Food is just okay and not worth the price. Service was abysmal. We arrived at 4:45 for dinner and were seated immediately. Waited 10 minutes for a waiter to take our drink and dinner order and another five for our drinks to arrive. Iced tea tasted like instant. In the ensuing 25 minutes two other tables were seated and eventually served, while we continued to wait. Not even a bread stick to nibble on... A little after 5:30, a waitress brought two dishes to a table near us - one was an incorrect order, which was taken back, so all three started munching on one diner's fish and chips while waiting for the rest of their meals. Ten minutes later, another waitress came out to their table with a single dish, but rather than putting that dish down, she picked up the fish and chips and delivered both dishes to our table. When my partner asked if that was the plate from the other table, she said yes, but that it was still hot and okay. He replied "They were all eating from it," which the other table quickly confirmed. She left the fresh plate in front of my partner and told me she'd be back with a new fish and chips for me...which arrived a little over an hour after we arrived at the restaurant. Since we had tickets for a movie (that we had allowed, what we thought, was plenty of time for), I had to gobble down my dinner as our waitress asked "Are you enjoying your meal"? Uh, no... And trust me, we won't be back anytime soon.
