"just adding to address the response. I do take back that you didn't offer an apology, you did. Sorry. However, our conversation and your response still do not address my chief complaint , which was not that your portion sizes were too large but that the person that picked up the phone should have suggested we had too much food and maybe we should cut back on one or tow portion sizes, especially since I made it clear how unsure I was and was looking for her guidance. That is the crux of my issue. i have been a regular patron for decades, by dining in or in some or in this case ordered in. i asked the receptionist for some guidance for 6 people, telling her we wanted 6-7 dishes. We were 6 people with average appetites and half the food is leftover. i understand that 1.5 orders feeds 4-6 people but what the receptionist should have told me once she knew we were ordering that many dishes we should have ordered less dishes ordered the single size portion in some if not all cases. Case in point, she suggested 2 full size trays of garlic bread (which was horrible btw) and 3/4 of it was left over. I unnecessarily spent an exorbitant amount of money on a 6 person meal, trusted the receptionist and should have received better guidance when ordering that many things. when i called back 2 days later to express my feelings to the manager, he basically offered me a refund for the garlic bread, not taking any responsibility for being totally misguided. LP has been doing this for decades and should KNOW that the more the dishes, cut back on the portion sizes...... Had i received a bit more of a token gesture and a small apology, you wouldn't be reading this review. DG"

"I'm here a couple times, because the eating ambiente is great! this time was an ehhhh experience. Before I even came to the restaurant, I tried to call no one who picked up after the 4th time someone finally picked up. it took 20 minutes just to get our wein after we had ordered it, which was kind of annoying. a big party of girls came after us and got their wine bottles at the same time as we did not make any sense. Maybe they were under servants? the only reason I wrote this review is that what happened at the end of the night. our waiter comes to us and says: “If you like the ****?” added, there was no other way around us, as they have gone, but we had another half bottle of wine to finish not offered dessert. I had to ask a server assistant for the menu and she was the one who told me that the kitchen closes in 3 minutes. our waiter literally disappeared on us, I had to get up and look for him to make sure that I would get the dessert in time. After we tipped him so that he could close, we told him that we ended our wein, dessert eating and making photos before we left him, he said "no problem" but it was clearly a problem because the host came up very high, just to tell us that we need to go soon because they close. that never happened. I'm server in my restaurant, we don't. I was shocked as if you wanted to go home so badly, then get a new job? They wanted us to leave sooo badly. When they got the money, they wanted us to go. as if we want to get it they want to go home, but we were there for 20 minutes after everyone left, it wasn't like we were there for 40-60 minutes. like I said big food ambience, but the end/shaft was disappointing."
