Disappointing - 2.0 out of 5

Beth, Boston Fri, 5 January 2024

I made a reservation for myself and 2 teenage daughters. We were excited to see a show at the Vet next door, but when we checked in, the host said "I hope you're not planning on making it on time to the show". I thought that was unfriendly and he seemed really grumpy! After we sat, it took the server 15 (or even more) minutes to come over and greet us (it was not that busy). We waited so long that I called a nearby restaurant to ask how long the wait was because we were going to leave. Once the server came over, he apologized for the wait, but I was really disappointed. As a server myself, I would have asked someone for help to greet my table, or send a manager over. It really wasn't the best experience. I probably won't go back. We chose this restaurant because we were goin to a show at the Vet next door.

Liked: Close to venue.
Disliked: Unwelcoming host.

l While the food was decent, regrettably the General manager Christopher Moore was about as obnoxious and pompous as they come. We had made reservations for this past weekend to celebrate a major...
