Hi Everyone,
I live in DFS and check out the boards here. I enjoy reading about what's going on in the south part of our lovely county as well as here around home.
I'm really alarmed at the owners response over this meal. I live about 5 blocks off the lake yard and my boyfriend and I made plans with another couple to attend Bogie's New Years Eve dinner, since we could walk there and back, if we had a little too much fun, and not drive. We made our reservations before this thread hit the board.
I also want to comment on the this remark made by the owner.
"The new busy bee is a barbeque restaurant now."
The Bee is much more than a BBQ place,(only have three BBQ dishes on menu)although their BBQ is great, they have a full menu, daily specials and will start serving breakfast and dinner in the first week of the New Year. Their food is awesome and very,very reasonable and their service is great.
I say this because I write for the Herald here and most days one of us slips out the back door, walks about 20 feet across the street and picks up the orders we placed with the Bee for lunch. I personally think the BEE may give Bogie's a run for their money now as they have only been open for lunch in the past.
I have only eaten at Bogie's during lunch once and it was fine but no better than Bee or H&M or Ed's, where their service is as good as their prices.
I'm really sorry you had this experience. I will give you guys the run down of what our experience was like. Take care and have a safe and Happy New Year.
AL
