FLEMING’S NOTES:

What did you order?
Doug-E-Fresh:  Bar Menu Burger
NB:  Seared Tuna
3 Dees:  Petite Filet (#asshole)
Fitz:  MareBear and I split the Prime Burger.  I had a Caesar salad to start. 
MareBear:  Heirloom Salad and shared the burger with Fitz. 
K-Ron:  THE one and only Fleming’s burger J
P. Diddy:  “The Burger”
Seven:  n/a (He ordered the only burger on the menu!)
Spinderella:  Burger with cheese and fries
kt:  Prime Burger with cheese and bacon (medium) with GROSS truffle fries. 

How would you describe your burger?
Doug-E-Fresh:  Seasoned and cooked to perfection
NB: n/a – but tuna was good (*Note to self… find a restaurant that makes burger shaped tuna!)
3 Dees:  Non burger – again.
Fitz:  Two thumbs down on the burger.  And don’t even get me started on the bacon!  UGH :(  Burger really didn’t have any flavor. 
MareBear:  I enjoyed it but it wasn’t my favorite.  I probably wouldn’t order a burer here again. 
K-Ron:  Quite delish!  Very flavorful!
P. Diddy:  Perfectly done.  Very good burger. 
Seven:  Prepared Medium Rare – FINALLY!
Spinderella:  yum yums!  Very Happy!
kt:  Mediocre at best.  The bun was super soggy on the bottom, and the bacon was really funky tasting.  I was also a little upset by the “surprise” truffle oil on the fries.  Boo.  I will give Fleming’s credit for being SPOT ON with the temperatures of the burgers! 

How delicious was it (1-10)?
Doug-E-Fresh:  10
NB:  9
3 Dees:  8
Fitz:  2
MareBear:  7
K-Ron:  8
P. Diddy:  9
Seven:  8
Spinderella:  8
kt:  5

Was there anything memorable about the food and/or place?
Doug-E-Fresh:  Crispy bacon
NB:  Fitz’s Birthday!  Happy Birthday!  Awesome cake!
3 Dees:  First meeting with P. Diddy
Fitz:  It was my birthday!! :) 
MareBear:  The Best Birthday Cake Ever!  Also – I thought the service was great!
            *I also wanted to add that Fleming’s was kind enough to give baby Gipper a fabulous little bib!
K-Ron:  The seasoning on my burger was excellent!
P. Diddy:  April birthdays!  Aries Rocks!!!
Seven:  Fitz’s B-Day!
Spinderella:  I got to meet K-Ron & Doug-E-Fresh!  We celebrated Fitz’s b-day!  Holler!!!
kt:  Fitz’s Birthday!  The glorious cake!  Delicious wine!  K-Ron & Spinderella finally met!  And I explained to K-Ron the story behind her nick name!

Roughly how much was your order?
Doug-E-Fresh:  $25
NB:  $15
3 Dees:  Lots (#firstworldproblems)
Fitz:  Burger was $14 ($6 in the bar, and wouldn’t pay a cent more.)
MareBear:  $14
K-Ron:  $14
P. Diddy:  $117 (Including the bottle of Two Hands Shiraz)  (*P. Diddy – this might be a record!)
Seven:  $14
Spinderella:  $NO idea.  Thank you.
kt:  $14

Average service score:  9  (Thank you Fleming’s!  The service was AMAZING!)

*I would like to mention that Flemings offers the EXACT SAME burger that we all spent $14 on in their bar for $6 until 7pm.  We didn't read the "fine print" though which explains that you have to be seated in the bar to take advantage of the deal.  Boo. 
"One Percent!" #firstworldtoddlerproblems
