"When we arrived at the restaurant, they did not have a record of our reservation. Despite this, we were seated at a table and essentially left to fend for ourselves. The manager or owner seemed irritated that our group of seven would be spending a significant amount of money there and walked away without checking on us. No one came to clear our plates or take our empty glasses, and we had to pour our own drinks with a pay-as-you-go system in place. The lack of service made it feel like we were expected to cater to ourselves, rather than being treated as valued customers. I had dressed up for the occasion, only to be disappointed by the overall experience. On top of everything, they still expected a tip. It was a letdown and we won't be returning, although the hostess was pleasant."
