| - While perusing the 'streets' of Paris hotel we stopped in front of Le Cafe and the place looked poppin so we decided to stop and look at the menu as well as refer back to trusty Yelp. The menu options looked pretty okay as well as affordable, but the reviews on Yelp complained about the service. Usually I steer clear from places with horrible ratings on their customer service, but we realized we'd never eat if we didn't just choose a place to eat at already so Le Cafe it was.
Right from the get-go the lady serving as the hostess up front was just rude, short and had no business being the first person any patron would have to cross before dining here. Seriously, take the stick out of your ass. So we wait and wait for a table when while passing the restaurant we had seen so many open tables for us to be seated at. Then a group of older ladies come over showing their little card or something and they bypassed the line and were seated even though they just barely walked up 5 seconds ago. 10 minutes later we're taken to our table and it's filthy. Trash from the previous diners were still on the table and the dickhead hostess just starts brushing off crumbs on the table cloth, um okay what about the food stains? What are you going to suck those off or something? So when my gf asks if we can have a table in the other patio since it has so many open tables the biatch WITH attitude asks if we want to wait. Oh excuse me, how rude of us to not find the dirty ass table you made us wait for acceptable. Right after that another lady brings over a fresh table cloth... okay 1/2 star for that.
Ordering and waiter service was a nightmare. It was a total and complete joke, I think I actually even started laughing in the middle of it all just because it was so shitty. It took forever to get the waiter to take our orders and a day to get some bread & butter like the group who had arrived & ordered AFTER us received. When I tried to flag the waiter, then just any waiter as I seemed to have been invisible to all the muthafuggin service people at this joint for some bread, the waiter literally kept walking away from me telling me while pointing at our waiter who was ignoring us the entire time that we needed to ask him instead. Are you freaking kidding me???
Knowing we had a night of clubbing in tight dresses awaiting us we decided to go for their soup & salad combo and an order of some frites. I chose the french onion soup with their frise with lardon salad, while the buddy got chicken noodle soup with caesar salad. Portions were good, taste was subpar at best. The instant noodles we had in our hotel room tasted better than the soups set before us. My salad was boring and tasteless while the best part of my friend's caesar salad was the crouton and Albertson's deli prepackaged caesar salad's croutons taste better. We never got our frites, which was fine with us as we could tell from the food we had already tasted we weren't going to miss out on much. By the end of the meal we just wanted to get the f*ck out of there, but once again it was nearly impossible getting our waiter to pay attention to us. Even those ladies who bypassed the line and were seated before us in the beginning were starting to complain about the horridness of Le Cafe's service. And of course, those ladies received service before us once a-f*cking-gain.
When we finally got some service I mentioned that they never brought us our frites so they needed to remove it from our bill. Then the waiting game once again ensued for the actual bill, and what do we see when we finally get the bill? The charge for the frites. Like wow, are you guys just playing some nasty ass sick joke on us? MTV's Boiling Point is that you???
My buddy catching glimpse of the manager quickly got his attention and just went to town on all the bullshit we had to put up including the disgusting food. He tried to remedy the situation by offering us a dessert on the house which we responded to by giving him our does-it-look-like-we-want-to-waste-another-fuggin-second-here-at-this-shit-hole look and telling him we just wanted to get out of here. He came back with the new bill in which he comped us for one of the soup & salad combos and removed the never received frites. Another 1/2 star for the manager, but really he should have comped the whole meal because I would not eat here even for free. Upon paying and leaving I did something I never do, left no tip, at least no monetary tip... just a written tip. A not-so-nice one at that.
I WOULD NEVER EVER COME BACK HERE and suggest you don't even waste your time or money.
