| - I have never written an online review about a bar/restaurant, but I AM SO DISAPPOINTED! My girlfriends and I will never return to Kazimierz.
I had never been to this bar, and upon arrival I asked the bartender about the "signature shot." He was vague about the shot, and I told him that we were waiting for my friend who was in the bathroom to order. Two seconds later, four tiny, sugary, 2 oz shots materialized.
We weren't really interested in the vibe of the bar, or the other patrons, so we decided to move on. Unsure about the shots we took, I asked the bartender with the moustache if we had a tab -- to which he replies, in a snottier-than-snotty voice: "Well, I brought over four shots and you girls took them. Are you refusing to pay your tab?"
I have worked in the service industry for almost ten years. All of the girls I was with can say the same. I was insulted and embarrassed that the bartender would even insinuate that we wouldn't pay the tab, and even more annoyed that I never actually ordered the shots. But, understanding how there may have been some sort of misunderstanding, just asked him to bring us the tab.
And then, to put the icing on the cake, bartender #2 asks bartender #1 what's going on -- And, I'm not exaggerating here -- Three feet away from us, bartender #1 starts telling #2 about how we were complaining about paying our tab. Now I am insulted, embarrassed, annoyed, and blatantly being talked sh*t about.
Overall, I was unimpressed and insulted by Kazimierz tonight, and will continue to go to MercBar in Phoenix when I feel like going to a lounge-y speakeasy bar. Good luck, Kazimierz...
