"We had dinner on 8/12/2022. We were quite excited about this restaurant. When we arrived, we were pleasantly greeted by staff. Once seated, it was a different story. Our server only gave us the restaurant week menu when others were given both restaurant week and regular menus. I had to ask for the regular menu. Our wine glasses were almost immediately removed from our table. It was only when I asked for the wine list that the server left one glass for me. When I asked my nephew if he wanted wine, the server immediately said that my nephew isn't drinking because he will ask for an ID. I said my nephew has ID. Then the food came. The wait staff couldn't tell us clearly what we ordered. Then one wait staff asked if we wanted more sparkling water, so I said no but would like another glass of coke for my other nephew. He came back with another bottle of sparkling wine and proceeded to pour. I had to tell him that I didn't order another bottle of water but that I ordered another glass of coke. When I received the bill, it had the two bottles of water on it. I had to tell the server that I didn't order two bottles. He immediately removed it from my bill. The food was fine and the wine was good. The service left a bad taste in our mouths. This place is pricey and Daniel Boulud is one of the best chefs in the world. It was very disappointing that the service at this place was bad. I can't even justify the actions of the wait staff, whether it was discriminatory because my nephews looked very young and I would hate to think that we were judged by the wait staff. Service at Robuchon and Jean Georges are much better."
