[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Overrated:
Fiola
Seasons 52
Sushi Taro
Le Diplotmate - food is always over-salted
[b]Roses Luxury[/b]

Actually good, not overrated:
Blue Duck
Tail Up Goat
Rasika (but it has been awhile since I've been)
Little Serow[/quote]

No, no, no......  Roses luxury is in no way overrated.  The queue is a hassle but the price is reasonable and the food is superb![/quote]
“Queue?” I thought we were talking about DC, not London, restaurants.  :lol: Or maybe you’re just trying to sound fancy.[/quote]

Its just a better word, more precise..  If I say "the wait" its pretty vague.  "The line" not really ideal either.  I don't know, is there a better way to say it?  I mean I grew up in Michigan but I quickly adopted this from my English friends because I thought it was a more efficient way of describing it.[/quote]

You get there before it opens, and you stand in . . . wait for it . . . a line.  "The line" works fine.  Stop putting on airs.  [/quote]

Compare 
"You get there before it opens, and you stand in . . . wait for it . . . a line"
to "queue"

Much simpler.  I have no affinity for England which you seem to as you thinks queue is fancy whereas I think its just a word.
Restroom/bathroom is superior to water closet to me  *shrugs*

In line is better in the US. Queue makes you sounds like a tool. [/quote]

So if I say, "the problem with Roses Luxury is "the line"."

versus

"the problem with Roses Luxury is "the queue"."

In my view "the line" really doesn't mean anything and requires further explanation.

when you say "the queue" its clearer that you have to get a spot or number.[/quote]
