I'M DONE WITH BUDDHA BAR!!\r
A few months ago a friend visiting from Europe had his birthday dinner at B.B. Poor experience! Extremely rude staff, the waiter actually mocked my friend who wasn't fluent in English and at the end had the gut to ask for a more consistent tip! I couldn't tell about the food as we all ordered mainly appetizers and I personally had decent fried calamari. But last night's experience revealed the real truth. I and my friends had decided to go to the place across from B.B. but unfortunately the waiting time was too long so we checked the closest place and UNFORTUNATELY BUDDHA BAR HAD A TABLE!!! As we were entering the man at the door made a stupid comment about my friend,the host showed far too much attitude, never said hi never smiled and never looked at me while i spoke he just told one of the cheaply dressed hostesses to take us to the table. The hostess who wore a short sweater only (what's with lap dancers at B.B.?) sat us in an empty hall far away from everyone and the thousand empty tables around us were not reserved!The service was the worst ever, it took them from 8 30 to 11 to serve the 3 of us 4 appetizers and 2 rolls. Our waitress Monica played the ghost all night and the few times she showed up at our table it was literally for a rushed minute. We saw the bus boys more than we saw her! \r
The food was horrible, I ordered grilled asparagus and for the very first time in my life was forced to return the dish. The asparagus were uncooked, had a very bitter taste and were hard to swallow.The spicy Thai roll, that was served longer than 1 hour after the appetizers, was super dry had no taste and somebody forgot to add the spicy stuff. We didn't dare to order the dessert, we knew we'd have it the morning after for breakfast.\r
Need to add the place has the tackiest decor in the city of the best design, I'd be scared to see it with the lights fully on. And of course the bill, needless to say, was high in numbers. For Buddha's sake!!!!!!
