Service? What Service?
I have nicknamed this restaurant the “Restaurant from hell”. I should have walked out when every employee ignored me for 10 minutes while waiting to be seated. The someone walks in after us, and grabs someone and asks to sit at the only table left outside… which is where we were waiting patiently to sit. After another 5-10 minutes of waiting… my guest and I were finally seated… at a table that still needed to be cleared off. Our waiter came, opened our bottle of wine which we were told could not be put on ice because the ice machine was broken. After being left to decide on our meal our waiter came over took our choices and left…. never to be seen again…until the check came. We waited for 10 minutes until I got annoyed and asked someone else for utensils and napkins. Then I grabbed someone else to get bread and butter which came after i relieved the comment…" um well Im trying to work on it", After eating our salad and our meals (which were ok… not great..) our waiter came over and placed the check down. He did not ask if we wanted anything else nor did he come over at any point in the meal to ask if anything was ok. We got up to pay, and expected the man behind the counter to ask how everything was (we think he was the owner)… but all the guy said was you owe _ amount of money; he at the moment was too concerned with counting all the cash in front of us, while exclaiming to his waitress… how much she made in tips.. SO UNPROFESSIONAL.
The wait staff spend more time behind the cash register than waiting on the people. Unless you are the only people in the restaurant …. don;t expect any great service. Oh and if you don’t mind staring at people’s leftovers the entire time… then this is the place for you. They didn’t clear off any tables for 3 hours.
All in all an undesirable experience from the time we walked in to when we walked out
