"The Dish" in central ybor

[The Spectacle]

The homie Beans treated me out this past weekend, good good shit. Mongolian style BBQ stuff. I highly recommend. $15 all you can eat.

[Rich]

The dish is good if you have any sort of clue about cooking. You go throw a bunch of crap on a plate and dump some sauce on it that has no earthly business being there and its going to suck ass.

[SSpiro]

I love that fucking place... once a month at least for me.

[Jake]

TR The Dish meet? Im down :lol:

[POLLO]

I haven't been to the dish in a while but is definetly a place that looses its luster if you frequent it more than twice a month. I also agree on what Rich said, you need to know your foods, I've seen people getting salmon, shark, swordfish, piled up then use meat sauce...

I went to the one at baywalk and it was pretty good

[Jordan Y.]

I hated that place. I'm one of those people that have no natural sense for cooking- I can cook just fine if it's laid out for me step by step in a cookbook but I can't just throw things together. I'm the guy that walks into Subway and tells them to put whatever they think is good on it- it never fails, they get confused like I'm the only person who ever went through their line without a long list of ingredients and instructions for them, and ask "well, what do you like?" If I knew, I wouldn't be asking you!

I went to the Dish, took a look at all of the food and asked for advice and got the blank look and "well, what do you like?" Basically I payed almost twenty bucks with tip and drink (that for a server whose only task was bringing drinks out whenever she felt like it, which wasn't often). That for the privilege of having to walk around like I'm at a damn grocery store, having to come up with something halfway edible with no clue what most of the ingredients were, having to wait even longer standing around a hot grill area, then finally sitting down and having to wait half an hour for drinks while trying to choke down the squid beef ranch dressing tofu pasta with marinara sauce that somehow got globbed onto my plate as I randomly grabbed at things in the buffet line.

What's so complicated? Pile up some dead animal, choose a sauce and let them cook it up for you. :dunno:

The lines are always so long..

I agree...we used to go alot and just overdid it. I wouldn't mind going again since it has been a few years since the last time we went.

And yeah, it helps to have some idea about what foods and sauces go well with each other.

:lol: so true.

the $15 is what kind of gets me due to me not eating a lot but every once in awhile its a nice spoil for myself.

the New Century Buffet on Merritt Island has a similair set up with far fewer choices but I enjoy it once a week while I am down working on my car.

There are several restrictions but depending on when u would normally go might be worth it.

[Juicy_J]

been there a few times , the one is St Pete was exellent, in Ybor I expierienced horrible service , not bad for $15

[Southern Comfort]

TR The Dish meet? Im down :lol:


Fuck ya, I suggested it before in one of Aharon's threads but I don't think it'd be a good idea for mass amounts of people ...

Although we could all sit outside, that would be great especially when it gets a little cooler outside in the evenings.

I LOVE that damn place!!!!!! *So* good

[JERSEYGURL]

That place is soooo GOOD... I havent been in like a year.. I wont mine goin again....

[Alli]

+1... i can only manage one plate! i usually go for lunch, it's $5 cheaper and i like the atmosphere better. is the one in Ybor all art-deco like the one in St Pete? cause the Baywalk one is a jaw dropper for me.

[TampaTony1978]

I went to DISH tonight & found it CLOSED as in OUT OF BUSINESS. Must've happened just recently 2/13/07 since other people were walking up to the doors as well not realizing DISH is el gone-o

[ImportLuv]

it is? or just the ybor location?
i never been to it, been told about it, never get to go to it.

[Puto]

It happened about a month and a half ago. I heard all the locations are closed. The pub next door said they went bankrupt.

[Solar Specialist]

We tried going for my sister's birthday in mid January and it was closed. Place next door said that people were pissed because they had reserved parties and put down deposits and everything. As I understand Dan Marino owns/owned it.
