| - Last Sunday, we went to the car show.... We wanted to find somewhere different to try and close by, so we decided to try Thai Origin based upon it's positive reviews. We were promptly seated by a gentleman who appeared very overwhelmed. He came over approximately 10 minutes after we arrived to take drink orders. We explained that we were ready to place our food order as well. In the meanwhile, he was running around, though seemed to be having a difficult time managing the 4 tables full of people in the restaurant on his own. He ignored people sitting in the front waiting for takeout as well, which lead to their frustration. After being there for 30 minutes total, he brought out my sister-in-law's soup (which she ordered as a dinner) and my brother's appetizer of spring rolls. Still, we never received our drinks. After another 5 minutes went by, we asked him if we could possibly have our drinks. Another 10 minutes goes by, he brings our drinks, and states, "I have no idea when your food will be ready". He would fluctuate between being very kind and soft spoken to throwing his hands in the air in frustration and grunting. After an hour of waiting, I asked, "do you think the food will be out soon?", he said "I don't know" and threw his hands in the air again. We asked for the check for the food we had already received. He handed us the check and said, "Thank you for coming tonight". Which seemed like an odd response based upon the situation. The waiter did apologize twice; however, the would follow it up a moment later later by becoming very agitated. Very odd behavior, and I can only hope this was an isolated incident. As a side note, my sister in law did love her soup, but unfortunately, the rest of us never had an opportunity to try their food.
