| - Yikes.
My boyfriend and I came here late in the evening (11:45pm) for my birthday dinner, and he has a medical condition that makes it so he can only talk very quietly, so we usually ask to sit beside each other, otherwise I can't hear him in a restaurant.
The place only had a couple tables of people in it - almost empty since it was just over an hour before closing, and had more than half a dozen 4-seater tables empty (I think all of them) that would allow us to sit side by side.
On asking to sit beside each other, the waiter says "no problem" and then takes us to a 2-seater table where he would have to sit across from me.
We figure he musn't have understood, so we wait for him to come back and explain again, and he tells us no. We'd probably eaten there a dozen times and it was never an issue, and when I explain this, he still insists no.
They offer for us to sit at the bar, but both of us have bad backs also, and it's not particularly comfortable for dinner. I'm confused at why this is a problem in a virtually empty restaurant, and ask to speak to the manager.
Manager comes over and still insists no.
Seriously? What the heck?
I totally understand if they were busy, or anticipating a lot of people, but in a empty room an hour and a half before closing on a Wednesday?
It's the first time, ever, anywhere that a place could easily accommodate his disability and has chosen not to - and we eat out basically every night.
Unreal. Obviously we left. And will not be returning.
If I could give 0 stars, I would.
