CasaBlanca Cuban Grill

On more than one occasion, I've been accused of being too harsh toward a restaurant that had just opened.  I won't bother to mention any names, but the fact is that you can still usually tell if there's something worthwhile about a place even if they're having a bad night.  Such is the case with CasaBlanca Cuban Grill, which I first visited on their opening weekend.  The dinner was just a comedy of errors.  An entire delivery truck full of supplies had not made it, which severely limited options.  Every meal that was served had something wrong with it, from temperature to texture, seasoning to portion size.  The difference at CasaBlanca is that they acknowledged their issues, apologized profusely, and bent over backwards to make things right.  I resolved then and there that these people cared about their restaurant and their customers, and I decided to give them some time to iron out the kinks before returning to give them another shot.
