Disappointing Anniversary Dinner at JK by Chef King
We were excited to celebrate our wedding anniversary at JK by Chef King last night, but unfortunately, our experience was incredibly disappointing.
Upon arrival, we were seated promptly, and the restaurant had a nice ambiance. However, that was where the positives ended. We waited several minutes before a waitress finally approached our table—without greeting us or offering a warm welcome. Instead, she simply said, “Tap or still?” No pleasantries, just a cold and abrupt start to our evening.
When we ordered drinks, despite both of us being in our 50s and clearly over 21, the waitress asked for our IDs. I made a lighthearted joke about being flattered and showed her my ID in my wallet. Rather than a simple glance, she insisted I remove it, then proceeded to inspect it thoroughly—front and back—even scratching it as if trying to determine if it was fake. It was an unnecessary and uncomfortable moment that set the tone for the rest of the night.
After that, the service only got worse. Our drinks sat finished at the bar for 10-15 minutes before she finally brought them to us. She rarely checked on us, avoided eye contact, and failed to provide basic service. I ordered the lamb, and she mentioned bringing a knife—yet it never arrived. With no other choice, I ate the tiny chops by hand, only to discover they were overcooked, dry, and lacking sauce—a far cry from what you’d expect at a fine dining establishment.
My wife barely touched her meal, yet the waitress never once asked how the food was or why it went uneaten. We sat waiting for a long time before she finally asked if we wanted the check. There was zero warmth, zero attentiveness, and absolutely no effort to provide a good dining experience from start to finish.
I had originally planned to bring my whole family here for my mother’s birthday in a couple of weeks. However, after this unpleasant and disappointing experience, we won’t be back.
