"When it came to the food, the situation worsened. They forgot two pasta dishes entirely, while everyone else’s food was served. My brother and I were left waiting, and the waitress only checked on our table three times throughout the entire meal, never asking if we were missing anything or if we were okay. When we attempted to inform a staff member helping Havana about the missing pastas, she rudely replied that it was our waitress's problem and walked away. Finally, when we managed to get Havana's attention, we told her about the missing dishes. She barely reacted, then went to get Thomas, telling him—not us—that the kitchen was closed, leaving us unable to eat together. Thomas struggled to apologize, clearly knowing they had messed up badly. As the person celebrating, I ended up not getting to eat at all. This experience could have been avoided if Thomas, the manager, had stayed with our table and not handed it off to someone who clearly wasn’t able to manage it. If the staff had been better trained to communicate and attend to our needs, Havana would have been aware of the missing food, and we wouldn't have had to endure such poor service. Overall, it was just disappointing. The management and staff really need to improve. I left without eating, and the only compensation offered was a $25 gift card from Thomas, which felt inadequate. It's essential for them to own up to their mistakes. This birthday dinner was ruined because of the lack of proper service from both Havana and Thomas."
