How is this place in business!?! 3/7/2011

I cant even imagine where all these good comments are coming from! Our entire evening was ruined by this cracker jack venue. I made a reservation for Saturday evening at least two weeks in advance. I had family coming in to town and I wanted to show them a good time we arrived about 15 minutes in advance so we could have a drink at the bar before eating. The greeting was probably the only positive I can find in this hell hole. After waiting for service at the bar for 15 minutes the short little bar tender ran up and acted like it was a total inconvenience that I was ordering a drink. He was very curt and actually rolled his eyes at me! We decided we would go ahead and sit at our table because we wouldnt want the nasty little bar tender to have to make another drink. God forbid. This time at the hostess stand a short little mexican man whom I assume was the manager said it would take about 20-25 mintues to sit. 1 hour later we are starving and still waiting in the bar. The front was packed and everyone was upset because they all had reservations at 7:00 and were being quoted a wait time of 20-25 minutes! I have worked in many restaurants during college and I dont understand why someone would book so many people in one hour other than greed. We finally decided to leave and go to a real resaurant. This place has to be one of the most poorly managed businesses I have ever been to. I will never return there and im sure at the rate they are going they wont be there much longer. more
