I wish I could comment on the food or quality more accurately, but the truth is that we left.
My partner and I made reservations in advance for Valentines Day. Upon our arrival, I notice two small tables, very close to the surrounding tables and about 10 feet from the front door. Considering it’s mid winter and 35 degrees outside, I asked the hostess if she wouldn’t mind seating us elsewhere. To which she replied as if it was such an absurd request and letting me know that they’re “fully booked.” I wouldn’t mind waiting for a different table, despite having a reservation. But this option was not provided. I noticed two bar seats open and asked if we could sit there instead, “I have a reservation for those seats”, ok, but I also have a reservation… “can you be gone by 7?” Which was roughly 45 minutes away at this point… I don’t want to be rushed out of a restaurant but as someone who’s worked the same job as her, I’m more than certain another seat / table will become available within that time frame.
Feeling defeated by a conversation that wasn’t going anywhere and being faced with attitude, we decided to take the table provide. It was so close to the other tables that we could hear them chewing. The lighting was so white and sterile, it felt uninviting. We sat for 10 minutes without being greeted so without commitment, we decided to leave.
I will let all my friends know how poorly the staff was to accommodating their guests and will forever recommend other places with warmer, more inviting atmospheres :)
Shout out to Izumi 5 minutes away for being able to seat us quickly and provided amazing service and even better dishes. We ended out our dinner date on a high note.
