On Sat, Oct 18 we made a 5:30PM reservation for 4 at Pietrasanta. This was our first time at this restaurant. The prix fixe was very enjoyable and the waitress pleasant. We finished our dessert, paid our bill and were having our coffee. The hostess came to our table and asked us to leave. She said people were waiting in the lobby who are preordered their food; it was done and waiting to be served to them and they needed the table. I have never been asked to leave a restaurant and voiced my opinion. It was totally unacceptable but they would not address the situation - just glad we left. The waitress apologized but I was furious and felt singled out for no good reason. We were not the only patrons in the restaurant and I will never return to this place again. I am a frequent theater patron with many friends who come into the city often and will spread the word about this treatment to customers.
Pros: Near theater district
Cons: See comments below
