| - Where do I begin?????
Well enjoyed being seated only to wait about 5 mins before the server (he didn't say his name) came over to ask if we wanted something to drink. Mentions there was a coffee bar and pointed over the area so did he want us to get our own coffee? Seemed implied. Ok 2 of my friends order coffee drinks and another ordered green tea and I got water. I was really excited about the build your own bloody mary cart that I kept hearing about. Only for him to explain it's not ready yet and will be in about 30 mins. Ok that makes it 930am great. My friend then had to ask him to bring 2 waters for our friends who weren't there yet, ummm shouldn't he has just known to do that without having to be told? Okay so friends get there and ask to be on their own tab (makes it so easy before ordering everything) they ask for an iced tea and diet coke. Super simple right, well at this point horrible server tells us the bloody mary cart isn't going to be ready for another 45 mins, so clearly you don't know what time your restaurant runs things and you're the server. Ok breakfast would be over by then so my diet coke friend and myself said never mind. He then pipes up and says I can still get you one from the bar. No thanks that whole point is to pick your items for your BM, so I get an iced coffee. We order some popovers that were ok, not great just ok. So now it's been about 10 mins no iced tea, diet coke or my iced coffee I ask the server about our drinks "oh yay" I'll bring them right out, AKA I forgot to order them. Again my friend reminds we they are on their own tab, everyone orders a table of 6, I have to ask another server for a water refill because our waiting just didn't get the empty glasses at the end of the table meaning need more water, since we still didn't have our other drinks, he comes over and fills the glasses I'm assuming because she told him. Now it's only 9 something am on a Sunday so not crazy busy I would say. Great finally get drinks but again he walks away without asking my friend with green iced tea if he would like a refill. I sorry but your choose to be a server then you need to be better at serving people and be aware of what your tables need. So of course he had to ask for a refill still no food, about 35 mins later we get our food, great except my friend in the our own tabs didn't get his order and I asked for gravy on the side ( i didn't dare say something with how long it took to get here the first time). Seriously, it's that hard to write orders down and put into a computer to order????? Especially because the other tables he had were empty at this point. So he says about 10 more mins for my friends food, so awkward a table of 6 and 1 whole meal is missing, wow. I assume the manager came over within 2 mins and brought his food apologized and brought him a yogurt parfait for having to wait. Wow if the server could only take lessons from his manager. Ok it's now 1015 it took that long to get breakfast in a not overly crowded restaurant. We get our checks and mine was $18 and change I give a $20 and he smartly says do you want your change, No I said, really at this point you continue to be stupid. So he brings everyone their cards back and bring me my bill and $1. Seriously, this guy is out of control, I said no, yet you bring me just a dollar back, not even the entire change. Now you get the change and $1 for your tip. I always feel bad for servers since they live for tips and give at least 20% but I have never experienced such horrible service like this. Especially from the Fox restaurants. Makes me wonder if the other restaurant servers have gone down hill as well. WON'T BE RETURNING HERE AGAIN! Would give zero stars if possible.
