If there was a way to give negative stars that would be my choice.
Walked in to the establishment with a party of 6. I recognize we did not have a reservation but is was roughly 7:00pm. Hostess told us there was nothing available but if we wanted to come back in 20 minutes or call she had a reservation that had not shown up yet and she was going to hold the reservation for 20 minutes.
That is normal and so we asked if there was a bar we could wait at and the reply was "yes but there are people at the bar"
NEVER have I been told anywhere that I can't wait or have a drink at a bar while waiting for a table. Top that with the fact that the bar is visible from the outside and it had more than half of the chairs unoccupied.
My take is that the establishment is "selective" about its patrons which in my world equates to profiling.
Our party was white Caucasian well dressed but not Canadian.
Their loss on multiple levels. We went to another restaurant where we were seated, had an excellent meal with excellent service and had a total check of over $700.
To the management of this establishment I say to remember that we live in a digital world where one unsatisfied customer can prevent many other patrons from walking through their door.
