This had been one of our favorites for years, but lately the service has fallen off since they have been emphasizing take out. My wife and I stood at the hostess area for twenty minutes tonight without being acknowledged by any of the staff. The ones that had to retrieve menus or silverware from the station went out of their way not to make eye contact or talk to us, even when we asked them where the hostess was. Finally, after standing around long enough for other people to come in, order take out and get their food, I went to the waiter station that seemed to attract all the staff, I asked if the were going to seat us or were we going to have to eat somewhere else. The blank look and "ummm..." Reply gave us the answer, and we went to Simonetti's.
