My husband and I had dinner at Providence Cafe on a Wednesday evening at 7:30, the place was not very busy and we easily were one of the last tables there when we left at 8:45. The food was ok - good but the service was terrible. This was a celebratory dinner and we usually take our time at dinner but we were unfortunately rushed thru the entire meal, and I couldn't understand why...since there wasn't by any means a lack of tables. We had no time to enjoy our wine before our salads arrived and I wasn't even half way done with my salad by the time the entree appeared. My husband had to get up to get our own fresh ground pepper. And our water glasses were never filled so I finally asked for more water and Emily the waitress only filled my glass, even though my husband's glass was empty and was right next to mine. Never smiled, didn't know how to describe the restaurant she works at. Since this was both of our first times dining here we asked her (as a test to get her talking), "What kind of restaurant would you describe this place as?" Her reply, "I don't know, good question." I believe PC has been around for quite some time but if they want to keep their tables full they better start hiring a bit better. On a good note, the 2 man band that was playing was excellent. The salads weren't worth ordering for $6 but the Flounder entree and shrimp and grits were pretty good but unfortunately I probably won't come back because of the service, or the lack there of.
