| - I usually do not give restaurants this rating, but was not at all happy with our experience. Hubby and I arrived at about 4:45-5pm on Sat (8/28) and it was not busy, there were a couple of tables that had people and apprx 6 people at the bar with 2 bartenders. We were on a date and decided to check out one of the new restaurants in downtown Chandler and the reviews were good at the other locations. Literally, we sat at the bar and it took 5 minutes before either of the bartenders even acknowledged us or looked our way. There was no way you could miss us, we were sitting in the middle of the bar and the bartenders kept going back and forth, talking, doing things, doing everything else except at least saying " I'll be right with you". It was amazing watching this because there were only 6 other people sitting at the bar. We were finally acknowedged and given a wine menu and that was it. The bartender walked away and I think literally forgot we were there. Nothing said about the wine, food, etc. No waters no nothing. A younger gal came and sat next to us and immediately she was taken care of with her drink order. Once we saw that we decided that it was time to go, and the experience was certainly not worth staying for. We had friends that were eating dinner in the booth behind us and unfortunately told them we were not staying and why we weren't staying. The hostess at the front, super nice, and mortified that we were leaving tried to accomodate us, but unfortunately we really were really disappointed and just decided to go elsewhere.
I know this is a new opening but the staff needs to be better trained. There are too many good places out there and not sure if we will be back to give this a second try.
