Good Food - Bad Drinks and Service

The food was good here, but not good enough to make up for the watered down drinks and terrible service. Also, did not have the first three items I ordered. This was early on a Fri night, they didn't run out, they just didn't have it. Starliner Diner in Hilliard has similar cuisine, and much better service. The menu isn't as varied, but they always have what's on it.

I ordered the Pomegranate Lemonade drink, which was basically all syrup. After asking the server to water it down, she brought me more lemonade mix, which of course has sugar. So, I asked her for seltzer, and she took the drink to mix it with the seltzer, brought it back and it tasted just as syrupy as when it was first served. I still had to pay for it, even though I never sipped more than that first horrible sip. We ordered variations of poached egg and crab cake breakfasts, which was possibly one of the worst meals ever. It was akin to eating salt from a bowl, albeit it looked...
