dik's last resort

hey! i was just wondering if anyone can tell me about dik%26#39;s last resort. i%26#39;ve heard good thing and bad thing%26#39;s about it. what kind of stuff do they say to u?






dik's last resort


We love D%26#39;s Last Resort. (Sorry, the website won%26#39;t let me type the actual name of the place) The food isn%26#39;t really great, but the atmosphere is a lot of fun. The first time we visited, it was just me and my wife. The next time, we took our kids (ages 6 and 12) to lunch. Things are a little more tame during lunch.





Our kids loved the place. They didn%26#39;t understand some of the adult humor, but what they did understand, they thought was hilarious.





Yes, the servers and staff truly do insult you on-purpose. You can either get involved and play along (which will encourage them more), or you can be quiet and they are only moderately insulting. I would say that it can be as much fun as you make it.





They make ';condom'; hats for everyone (including the kids), and put an insulting comment on them. Each server can interact with the guests any way they want. For our adult-only first trip, our server sat down at our table with us when we arrived. We didn%26#39;t know it was our server, and we didn%26#39;t know why this stranger sat at our table. We waited for a long time, and when I finally complained to my wife about there being no waitress, she finally got up, made a sarcastic comment to me, and reluctantly took our drink order. Believe me, it was funnier than it sounds.





Give D%26#39;s a try, and make sure to ask your server where the bathroom is located. As I said, the food isn%26#39;t really very good, but it is a lot of fun, and well worth the time and money.

Let me see if I have this right...





The food is not very good, and the wait staff hurls insults at you, but it%26#39;s lots of fun? Hmm...





I can%26#39;t help but think of the patrons who don%26#39;t know the insults are part of ';the act.'; Even knowing that going in, some people just don%26#39;t warm up to insults. I used to work in a nightclub where Jackie Mason performed. He always picked on the ringside seats. Most ';victims'; laughed, but some got up %26amp; walked out. You have to be able to laugh at yourself %26amp; some people are too sensitive.





PS: I just found a D%26#39;s Last Resort T-shirt at a local thrift shop...like their ads, they%26#39;re pretty funny.




Been there twice for lunch. Dinner it%26#39;s pretty crowded. Have seen line halfway across parking lot in the evening.





Tables are long. Seat maybe twenty or more to a table. They just start filling the table up. Party of five. Party of four.....Party of six......until table is full. Not only do you laugh at yourself but you get to laugh at perfect strangers. Well.....They%26#39;re laughing at you too so it works out......





Table cloth is one long sheet of paper. Server shows up and rips corner of paper off and writes your order on it. Straws and utinsels are just thrown on the table. Every man for himself.





When the meal shows up they go out of their way to place wrong meal in front of wrong person. Somebody in the second party down the table might get your order.




Haven%26#39;t been to the one in MB but have taken the kids (11 %26amp; 14) to the one in Boston (during lunch) and they love it!!! We are looking forward to going to the one in MB when we get there.......in 11 days (and counting)!




It%26#39;s a great place to go...your kids will love it ! Just be careful if you have anyone who is easily shocked because they won%26#39;t censor anything for grandmas. :)





It%26#39;s a fun gimmick but now we only go if traveling with someone who has never been there. It a ';been there, done that'; sort of place.





The food is decent.
