| - Horrendous Service. Never visting this place again. Yes my friends and I were 10-15 minutes late for reservation. We called 20 minutes beforehand to say we would be down 2 to the reservation and would be ten minutes late. We came in, purchased appetizers, entrees, dessert, and opened 3 bottles of wine and 4 bottles of beer (each beer bottle cost $3 to cork, talk about overpriced!). Closing in on two hours and 15 minutes, we were told we needed to leave soon because we had spent too much time. Finishing up our remaining glasses, we were quickly told "sorry, we need this table. you need to leave." Isn't that restaurant no-no number 1? Never ask patrons to leave? How sad. I've never had this happen to me in any previous restaurant experience. After getting out of our table, my roommate went to a friend who happened to be visiting at another table and stated "feel free to tip as little as you want, they just kick you out". Yeah, not the BEST thing to say, but come on, his statement would have never occurred had they not rudely asked us to leave. After that, the manager told the owner how "rude" we were being, and he came over to tell us to leave. He said he was sorry, but that he had to side with his manager. Funny enough he finished his statement with "the big one was being rude" (side note- in any outing I will always be pinned as the "big one") when I was doing nothing, merely laughing in the corner because I'm a sucker for horrendously awkward situations. At this point another friend was talking to a different friend (hope you're not lost yet, and you've made it all the way down here!) about how good the food was, when the owner said "you need to leave, stop talking to them." When my friend protested he was only catching up with a friend and telling him about the food, the owner responded with "you need to leave now". Dang, where did common courtesy go? Eventually we left, but not without a sour taste in my mouth. I wrote on their Facebook wall and how disgusted I was at how we were treated. And guess what. Within five minutes I was banned and my comment deleted (talk about service! maybe they needed that in their own establishment). Overall thoroughly disappointed with how the whole situation was treated.
PS- Salt of the Earth is better. Just saying...
