Our waiter was awful. Three times he came by and said “I’ll be right with you “ before he actually came to the table for the first time about 10 minutes after we got there. We ordered our drinks,appetizers and dinner at the same time. He brought the wine but someone else brought the appetizers and dinner. He never once came back to ask how our dinner was or if we needed anything. It was as if he wrote us off as a loss before he even started. We’ll go back because the food was great but we’ll ask for a different waiter if he is there.
