"we always had great experiences here. we go here for special occasions. one of the things we love is the fabulous attentive service, but unfortunately the service terrible, insulting awful. we should have asked for a change when we saw that some who looked anxious constantly tried to get the attention of the waiter. Instead we sat her, while said waiter refused to take our drink order until the whole party arrived. As soon as they did 15 minutes later, he informed us rudely that we had to wait until everyone knew what he wanted to drink, how we were children, because he would only make a trip into the bar. this is my man's birthday, and they want to drink him? So we started to ask the bus boys for drinks or would ask him before we were finished because drinks lasted about 30 minutes. still we have only 2 or 3 drinks (we usually 5) I think he went on all his tables and made us all order at the same time so he went out into the bar. when the coffee was served, he left it on a table next to our table for 10 or 15 minutes. he went away, we finished dessert and then he came back 10 minutes later and shaken it. a new couple sat next to us. 15 minutes later, the man stood up and screamed, as the tip of his lungs at a manager screamed over the waiter. she offered him weeping so he might have been shot and ignored. it was his jubilee. everything I say is special occasions that need special occasions. that was not a new server, but there was obviously something that wasn't right with him. his attitude, his demeanor, he was sweaty, a little ashamed. I think I'll rethink my special restaurant. I also called in advance to tell them that it was the 40th birthday of my man. they offered to put rose petals on the table and give him a free dessert....one of them happened. Instead we were brought to a big table by an empty restaurant and stood there while they put the table before us."
