"I 've had good experiences with Applebee 's in the past, but not this time. The food was okay but could have been better. Some of the chips with our appetizer were stale, and the broccoli in the pasta was undercooked. When we arrived, we were told we would have to wait 15 20 minutes for a table, without explanation. There were several empty tables the restaurant was nearly empty, and there were several staff standing near the kitchen conversing. Upon further questioning, the hostess shared that they were short staffed. Perhaps if the hostess had stated something like we are short staffed today, so would you mind waiting 15 20 minutes? You can sit in a booth and look through the menu and sip on some water while you wait, it would have been a more pleasant experience from the start. Instead, we had to stand and wait for a table due to the limited seating area of the already crowded waiting area. I observed throughout my visit that a few minutes after we were seated, people began to get seated immediately. I also observed that several staff members, at least 2 3 at a time seemed to have time to converse. Our server was friendly enough but was not extremely attentive. Unless management improves and puts customers first here, I would not return. In addition, hostesses should have much better conversational and people skills. If I ever ordered again, I would order takeout to avoid being treated like a number."

"My daughter and I decided on looking at a map of the area and the first restaurant she pointed to, we would try out. This made for a rememberable dining experience and not in a good way. First, we entered the establishment prior to lunch and the hostess/waitress' back was towards us while she was at the bar talking to another employee so she might not have heard us come in, but the other employee saw us and made no mention to her that we are standing at the front desk/entrance. After about 3 minutes she turns around and was surprised to see us there (First red flag). We chose the outdoor patio after being seated and offered beverages. My daughter asked the waitress about the difference in some of the dishes she was interested in and the waitress seemed as if this was too much (Second red flag) of a hassle so my daughter ordered a simple Ceasar salad and I ordered Wild Mushroom and Walnut Tortellini with a glass of Chianti. The Ceasar salad was wilted with way too much dressing on top and not worth the $10.49 price and my order of tortellini pasta was way past al dente with the ends flopping around in the sauce. It was palatable at best. (Third red flag) The air around the patio area smelled of off gas(old food that has been stuck in a pipe for months). If you look at their logo the words Italian, Market and Café are separated. I think the products they sale or display fits into the category of Italian Market, but I have tasted way better food on the side streets of a Roman café near tourist traps."

"There were three of us. An LAPD Sr. Lead Officer, a representative from the Los Angeles City Counsel. The Officer has a limited time therefore had only a glass of water. The waitress was the antithesis of the service and demeanor that has always been a hallmark of The Hamlet. She was rude, pushy and unreasonable on EVERY level. The Officer and the City rep asked only for water. I had an Arnold Palmer. The server gave us menus. We explained that after he left we two would order. That didn 't deter her from returning every few minutes to ask about our order. Perhaps it 's relevant to say that when we arrived there was ONE party of two in the entire restaurant. ONE. So it wasn 't like there was a line out the door for lunch. For the better part of a year I 've been having lunch at 1pm EVERY WEEK. And there 's NEVER been a line of guests waiting for seats. NEVER. Moments, I mean less than a minute after the Officer left the waitress returned, asked for our order and told us, make that lectured to us that we couldn 't sit there unless we ordered. Without raising my voice I told her she was rude and pushy. That he had said that once the officer left we 'd order. Then she took a different tack. She said she was just checking back to see if we were ready to order. Ready to order? after the Officer was barely in his patrol car outside your front door. I told her to look around and tell me if property were waiting for tables to be available. Of course there weren 't because it was a typical Wednesday lunchtime at the Hamlet. 40, 50 maybe even 60% but absolutely no more. A few minutes later she returned, we ordered pea soup and cornbread (my all time favorite soup whether at a Hamlet or at the now departed Kate Mantillini 's on Wilshire at Doheny). The City rep and I commented to each other how ridiculous the scenario had been. The bill was paid and we left the table. Perhaps she was having a bad day. We all have a bad day but that 's no excuse. Your thoughts?..."
