I visited Chalk for a friends birthday, along with about 12 other ladies. The first impression was that it smelled like a big fart. Worse than my elementary classroom. They must know they have this non-preferred smell because the bathroom had candles going and an endless supply of Febreze. No amount of air fresheners can fix the smell of a hulk fart this place had going on.
Everyone's second impression was "damn, all these TVs!" I'm not super impressed by TVs because it's not really where I get my entertainment, but damn, there really were a lot of TVs of all sizes.
We were seated and given one menu. ONE MENU FOR ALL 10+ OF US. We were told that was all they had at the time. [insert wide eyed "WTH" expression] I'm no mathematician, but I would assume you'd count how many seats you have in a restaurant and order at least that many menus, if not three times that many. Our server comes over, seeming somewhat overwhelmed at the amount of tables he had to service. Of course, 75% of us weren't ready to order because that whole one menu faux pas. Seeing that it was going to take a while to get our drinks, most of us opted for a quick choice: Draft Beer.

We wound up asking for our tabs before we got our beers because it was taking so long to get that one yeast fermented beverage to our table.
Beers were fine, but $5.00 for a Miller Light...uh...whatevs, just get me out of here.
Our seating was fine. We had a massive booth that sat us all comfortably. Again, if you're into the whole TV thing, no matter where you sit, you can see at least 10.
Let me add, I failed again at trying a restaurant far too soon. Give them a few weeks/months to get it together and I'm sure it'll be 100.
Side note: The fart smell never dissipated.
