| - Have you ever gone to a place for the first time, and within 60 seconds you knew you made a mistake? Yesterday, we went to try out The Park. We walk in and the place is empty, we go up to the hostess and joke "I hope you can find us a seat" The hostess just stood there, slack jawed and bored, then said "Follow me", and shuffled us to our seats. Within 5 seconds of sitting down, the waitress came and asked us what we wanted to drink, I told her, that we literally just sat down, and haven't even opened the drink menu. So, she came back with water, my girlfriend asked if they had any chardonnay, and the waitress just blankly said, "maybe" and left it at that. I asked what kind of beer they had on tap, since it wasn't in the drink menu, the waitress said "look at the taps, that is what we have", now mind you, the taps were a good 30 feet away and there was a lot of sun coming through the windows. I told her that, as the taps were far away, I couldn't make out what was written on them, did she want me to get up and go look at them closer? After many seconds of silence from the waitress (at no time did she disclose what they had on tap), I made a guess, ordered a beer. That pretty much ended our desire to eat anything. We finished our drinks and left, never to return. Terrible service from incompetent and uncaring staff. There is a happy ending, we went somewhere else, where we told our story to the fantastic staff who were amazed at how terrible The Park was.
If you want to be treated by unprofessional, lackadaisical staff who really don't give a damn, then this place is for you.
