We came here for a girls' night out & were really looking forward to, but while the food was delicious, the service was shockingly rude & left us all feeling uncomfortable.
Early on, while I was speaking with one of the staff member who brought us bread, our server interrupted & started talking over me. They both walked away mid-conversation, ignoring me entirely. When I asked the server about it later, he simply said the bread wasn't meant for our table, no apology, no basic courtesy.
We were then left waiting until I had to call him over to place our order. The food arrived & tasted great, but the atmosphere quickly turned cold. We started noticing the staff, & even the manager, giving us pointed looks, as if we were overstaying our welcome. The restaurant had been full when we were eating, but by then, several tables were open, so we didn't feel like we were taking up space.
When the server came over with the card machine, he didn't just hand it to me, he dropped it on my hand. It was careless, & it hurt. At this point, the restaurant was mostly empty, so we stayed at our table a little longer to chat. That's when our server came over again to fill our water… & splashed it all over the table. It felt intentional, like we were being pushed out.
The whole experience felt cold, dismissive, & just plain rude. I wish I could recommend this place for the food, but the service was unacceptable.
So, you were flirting with the bread person either trying to impress your friends or trying to get laid. Then when you got shut down, you and the girls started to treat the place like a bar where you figured you could just stay past closing. Any place that shuts down this kind of behavior is exactly where I want to be. Thank you for the recommendation.
