Had lunch there today. It was steady, I didn't have to wait for a table. Servers were great. I got the grilled cheese and it was fantastic. My dad got the Cresswick burger and he enjoyed it. Russet Fries were pretty good. Very fresh veggies, good bread. I can still taste the Rosemary. The menu was a bit limited compared to what I was expecting, but I suppose it can be better to do a few things really well, than a lot of things with mediocrity. A nice place for lunch, that is for sure. So glad they are where they are.

Kind of had the same "meh" experience. The service was mediocre, the food was good, but nothing I would crave (like Greenwell's fries), and speaking of fries, if you want fries with your $10 sandwich, it'll be $4 extra in lieu of kettle chips.

I was really excited and hoping for more. It doesn't have any character (except the bathrooms, cool idea w/ the puzzles). I hope they tweak and step up their game quick or I fear for their long-term survival. If your going to call yourself the Electric Cheetah Lounge, you better have the food and atmosphere to back that name up. I didn't see it.

I still encourage everyone to go and give it a try though. But as I said, they should make some major tweaks, soon.

You obviously didn't have the same experience I did. There were definitely opening day jitters that left us with subpar service. I thought you weren't fond of your sandwich. I know my salad was lukewarm. I believe the salad was meant to be cold but I had pieces that were hot and warm...almost cooked lettuce in a salad was not appetizing. Sure they put grilled chicken on there but it was charred and it could have cooled a little more.

There is no $10 sandwich on the menu.

If you are going to pinch a penny or two make sure the facts are straight so that others dont get the wrong idea..

The cost of a sandwich at the Electric Cheetah is $8.00 which is going rate around town.

The fries are hand cut and have hours of labor attached to them so adding $3.00 in lieu of chips seems pretty fair.

Well thanks for chiming in Silas. You are right. $8 sandwich. $4 fries.

Mediocre service. Very little atmosphere. Hope they improve. Hope they succeed.

I'd be shocked if anyone disagrees with my points above (unless they had a better waiter). Didn't even mention that we made reservations because we had a large party, confirmed reservations the morning of, and they still had the reservation 45 minutes late. I think this would fall under opening jitters and probably will be rectified when they have a few weeks under their belt.
