"I asked her to work a young woman for an evening meal in my hotel, and she recommended this place. I arrived, and there was an event that went outside with the road closed, and a live band with many people. I didn't want to party, I decided to go in. it was not super busy with maybe half the tables full. a young woman who wore a bundle of wounded cutlery sat down me, but before I sat down, I saw that the table was not wiped, so I asked someone to do that, even after it was wiped off, it was not in the best frame. the surface was still a little sticky. I found the atmosphere to be loud, but I guess it wasn't inappropriate for an Irish pub. my server came by and told me that he would be back after he had taken care of the big table near, and if they wanted. it seemed long until he came back, but I think he was perhaps the only person who serves tables. there was another young man who turned around, but I think he was the bus boy. I found the menu a little expensive. what isn't today? the local perch dinner was $33, but it looks like the best option on the menu. it was served with their homemade kartoffel chips and coleslaw, but I traded the chips for perpetrator bites. I can't say I was super impressed. the fish had still the skin, and it was kind of hard at the edges, and everything seemed greasy. the perpetrators were the frozen sorts, and nothing to write by home. I had much better perch. I was hungry and tired, so I ate it. when my server made it back to me, I was ready for my leak. I don't think I'd go back here personally, but I wouldn't say that the place was terrible."

"We had decided to go for a late dinner, but before 9 pm, and entered the restaurant as we usually do.We waited a few minutes as the restaurant was a little more quiet than we have usually seen. We finally had the floor manager, we believe, take us to a table and he told us that "someone will be right with you". We waited more than 12 minutes for a waitress to come see us after she had been to a table a few feet away from us, with her back turned completely towards us. I had also made eye contact with one or two other servers who quickly made their way to the kitchen area. Once we placed our order, our beer and delicious calamari were brought out for us to enjoy. As I am known to do, I will not "dip" my food into sauces served separately when sharing with someone. I used my fork to scoop out some sauce and moved it to my plate, tapping lightly on the plate to ensure that all the dip comes off my fork. Within a minute, the table that the server had visited earlier with her back to us, started tapping on the table, not one of them but most of them!.Yes, even though I am an "old Fart", according to these brilliant 20 somethings, I did notice their continuous repetitive tapping throughout our meal. The server came over to their table and I thought maybe she had said something to them but apparently not. They later did it a few more times. The meal was very good but the atmosphere was terrible. The server got the usual 20% tip because she did what was expected. When we were leaving, the table serenaded my wife and myself as we left, with a loud chorus of table drumming. If this is how the next generation deals with the older folks, I feel sorry for the future. I am also upset with the restaurant as they were paying too much attention to the younger crowd, but didn't say anything to them about their behaviour which was evident to more than just us.. We all pay the same amount for the food we eat. I have since sent an email to the restaurant and have waited 2 weeks for at least an acknowledgement but to this day have not even heard a "thank you for your comments" or "we will look into this". We even sent the bill #, server # and name so that they could use it as a training moment. We're not looking for anything other than the acknowledgement!"
