| - The food here is great; the corned beef was huge and overflowing. The fries and coleslaw were good too. The waiter, an older French man, on the other hand, was condescending. "Do you want coffee?" he asks in an exasperated tone. He took the condiments off my table after I used them and put them on the table beside me, which was occupied by another couple, for them to use. He didn't even do it discretely either. He would fill the water, and when thanked, just walk away silently. When it came time for the bill, he disappeared and left us sitting for 15 minutes while he talked to tables around us. One woman at the neighbouring table asked him, (he was their waiter as well) what the soup of the day was and he just walked away, came back a minute later and brusquely told her. He didn't go to ask anyone, because I watched him wander away with his hands behind his back. I wasn't impressed by his service and it was reflected in the tip. In fact when a member of our party remarked that he thought the waiter had gotten lost (jokingly) because of the long wait for the bill, the waiter replied with "Oh, is that what you think, do you?". Perhaps I shouldn't be surprised that he didn't even acknowledge us when we left. I really liked the food, but would be wary of going back in case I got the same waiter. He has this air of superiority that just isn't justified. I'm the customer, you're the staff. Lose the attitude.
