| - So here goes , last Saturday night on 11/14 my partner and I invited another couple from San Diego to join us at switch for dinner . We gad only been a couple times and the service was good and we really liked the food . On this particular evening we started with drinks as we all like a good cocktail and since we were eating big meals we saw no issue . I admit our one friend was drinking more than the rest of us but he also had a designated driver and no one was being loud or disrespectful , after several drinks our waiter josh came over to cut off our friend from drinking , we were all surprised as we were not given any reason other than the waiter thought he needed to . My friends turned and looked at me since I am a food and beverage manager with Hilton hotels and asked if I would have. Done the same thing. I did say that it's up to the sever/bartender to make the call but there are other ways of making sure the Parton is ok or not , the server josh never came back to talk with us or offer dessert , another employee came to offer dessert which we did order . We thought maybe josh is busy but still no josh , he just avoided us like we all had done something wrong which made us feel quite uncomfortable. I'm sure this server just must be new to the industry but serious to ignore us all , we are all adults and we didn't even give him an issue when he cut our friend off or even ask for another drink for him as we wanted to respect that decision .. Making all of us feel so uncomfortable for the rest of the night was not a good decision in his part. We are very torn about ever going back or recommending switch to anyone again .. We all ate our food entirety even dessert that night and tried to have a good rest of the night talking with one another , as josh would pass by and not acknowledge us . I called him over at the end of the night to give me the check , he barely said 2 words, I just dint understand such behavior from another adult let alone your server that seemed to be pleasant at the start .. At this point we will have to say no to switch and just go to other places for dinner as we don't feel welcome at that establishment any longer , I work at a large Hilton property close by and have told this story to our concierge and we won't be sending any business there way until the owner sends us a very heart felt apology.. Thanks for reading .. Chris C
