Parking and Hostess Service Issues
Some customers have expressed frustration with the parking situation and hostess service. Homer M. had to look around for parking since the rear lot was full and then was told there would be a 20-30 minute wait. However, after receiving a text for the status, they got a table after only waiting 5 minutes. When Homer's wife explained the situation to the hostess, she became defensive and argumentative instead of trying to resolve the issue. Pierce S. also mentioned that service has been slow, while Lauren M. had to wait a long time for her order to arrive.
Food Quality and Variety
The quality and variety of the food have been a mixed bag. Author Daniel G. mentioned that the food reminds him of school lunches, while Amy S. found it to be mediocre and lacking flavor. On the other hand, many customers have praised the food, with W. E. noting that it's great as always. Erika G. recommended it as her favorite Mexican place, and Matt P. mentioned that the Grasshopper has been a family-owned restaurant for two generations, with kind owners who run it with care.
Service and Staff
There have been reports of poor service, with customers mentioning long wait times, rude servers, and lack of attentiveness. Homer's wife had a poor experience with the hostess, while Katie M. and Lauren M. both had issues with their servers. Scott D. waited over an hour for his food and was disappointed to learn that the staff was busy. On the other hand, Rich J. and Erika G. praised their servers for being attentive and friendly.
Conclusion
The Grasshopper has had both positive and negative experiences from their customers. While some customers have praised the food and service, others have had issues with parking, hostess service, and food quality. The restaurant should focus on improving these areas to provide a better experience for their customers.
