| - Went here for drinks before heading to cafe Boulud for dinner. When we arrived we wanted to sit outside, but they didn't have space so they said they'd let us know. We had a nice table in the lounge, and they immediately brought us free olives, popcorn and nuts. I was with a group of 50+ aged women, and I noticed that when they asked "too many" questions, our server was quite rude, which I didn't like.
They came to get us a bit later to say there was space on the patio, at the exact same time as our server was taking our snack orders. This was super annoying because the girl who came to get us for the patio and our server did not coordinate or communicate, so instead of stopping him from continuing to get our order, she just rushed half of us to stand up while the other half were still engaged with him in the order. It was all fragmented and really amateur.
Once outside, our new server repeated back the order that had been taken inside. We never got new waters and our server never asked us for second drink orders once we had finished our first round. We waited and waited for food to come and finally after an hour we cancelled - we had ordered a CHARCUTERIE plate which is just cheese and meat on a plate and should NOT take an hour. He said, "are you sure it's almost ready?" Which is not the right answer.
The space is nice but man the service was aggravating af.
