| - Have you ever had your server tell you that the kitchen forgot your order? Well, that's what happened to us at Sapori Grille yesterday -- our third (final?)of three botched dining experiences here.
Arrived around 12:20 for lunch, and there were 2 other tables. Placed our orders and were told again (this has happened each time here) that they were out of a certain item. This time, the stuffed peppers "weren't ready yet."
Side salads were delivered quickly. Fresh, good dressing, nothing spectacular.
And the wait began...
About 15-20 minutes later, they had to open doors because the smoke was so strong from the kitchen... little did we know it was our lunches burning, because they didn't know either!
Another 15 minutes go by -- and this point we haven't seen our server since she took our order -- and we finally spot our server. "Are we ever getting our food?" my wife asks, just a bit of annoyance in her voice. Our server throws her hands up and says, "I'm wondering where your food even is." OK.
Five minutes later... "They forgot your food was in the even, so obviously it's burned to a crisp. He's gonna put new ones in right now."
By that time, we'd been in the restaurant more than 45 minutes, so we told her not to bother and left.... on to our next attempt to eat lunch.
As we were about to pull out of our parking spot, the owner runs out to our car and says, 'I'm so sorry. I'm the owner. This has never happened before. Next time you're in, just look for me, and I'll give you a meal for two."
Not sure it there's going to be a next time.
