Ground Round

I am one to enjoy going out to eat on occasion and have yet to have a bad experience.  Well tonight I've definately had a bad experience and it started with over shooting the turn.  We've been to Ground Round and was excellent but we get inside and it's practically empty; perfect.  No one was to be found to be seated.  Hmmmm!  We found them 5 minutes later in the game room.  Should have left right then but no I want a Burger!  We get seated order our dinner.  My daughter was having a Happy Face Pizza with Fries, Hubby ordered the Appetizer and a Bacon Cheeseburger Medium Rare and I had ordered a Mushroom Swiss Burger Medium, both with fries.  My daughter has to pee, kids the bathroom inspectors lol.  We return and the waitress says no pizza.  She settles for corn dogs. Tears welling up in her little eyes, I felt so bad.  Yet we should have left but no she wanted to stay.  The appetizer comes and we snack on that.  Was quite tasty and we were happy.  Dinner is served! Yay burgers.  My daughter starts in on her corn dogs and hubby is chowing down his burger... oh i'm so excited... take a big bite of my burger and it's bleeding all over my bun.  I look at hubby and he's like send it back.  So she takes it back and a couple minutes later here it comes.  Now i'm upset stomach has turned, shaking(i freak at raw burgers/steaks) and not impressed.  Well, I cut into it and god damn it,  it's still not cooked.  I ate around the edges, threw it down and said well that's it.  The taste was good but raw meat turns me off.  The waitress comes by and says *how is everything?* all I said was *NOT GOOD*.  She scoops up the plate says sorry and off she went.   My daughter orders a smoothy for her dessert and was waiting on our check.  One walk by I'll bring your check, second walk by I'll get your check right away and third walk by I'll get your check.  Finally on the fourth trip by the check comes. We paid it $37.50 + 5.00 tip = $42.50 for the shittiest meal I've ever had. We did have some good laughs.  Considering when you walk in there are papers taped up saying that No beer, liquor or wine will be served tonight.  In over hearing,  the Liquor License expired.  Now how do you let that happen?  There were some sad customers.  I'd drank my dinner instead of eating that ooozing burger.  So for all to know the cook sucks and the service isn't all that grand either.
