Fusion Spice Bar & Grille

I met the owners of this place a few months before it opened, so I've been looking forward to seeing this place for a while. I stopped in today, but think this first visit may be my last. The service was great. The bartender was very attentive and greeted us promptly. I let her know I was interested in hookah, but she let me know unfortunately only appetizers could be ordered on that side of the restaurant. My friend wanted an entree so we figured we'd just eat and pop over to the hookah side after the food. He ordered wings and a steak bowl, I ordered fish & rice and I don't think any of the food came out until at bare minimum 20 minutes after we ordered. His wings came out, then about ten mins later his steak bowl was out and then my fish probably about ten minutes after his steak bowl [40 mins from ordering]. The restaurant was nearly empty when we went. There was a man who ordered steak kabobs after we ordered and his food came out before the wings did for my friend. The drinks we ordered weren't great either and the bartender informed us the sodas were flat so she couldn't make anything involving a fountain drink. The food was great and the bartender was as well. She did her best to make it a good experience, but the management of this place seems like it may be dealing her an unfair hand. One of the owners was there while we were, maybe someone could have made a run for 2 Liter bottles or cans of some sodas to at least have it on hand. Also, there is no reason frying an entire fish and plating it with rice should take over half an hour when we were 2 of 4 people in the restaurant. In fact, the food took so long we ended up running out of time and had to skip hookah. This place has a lot of potential and I'm hoping it reaches it's full potential soon. I read the reviews and got excited, but it definitely didn't live up to the hype for me.

I didn't like the experience it was children I guess you can say adults since they're 18 and older, but I was invited there by a friend and I don't partake in partying with children.. I felt very disgusting and uncomfortable with the aura of it all since I had already paid to get in I had a couple drinks and hookah and not long after that I left it was a horrible night 🤬🤬🤬
