| - My lunch at Sweet Melissa's in Rocky River could quite possible be the worst service I've ever received at a restaurant...ever.
We called ahead and thought, great! We cut the line and were seated within 5 minutes (although there was no hostess at the hostess stand for about 3-4 minutes after we got there).
There was a party of 8 of us and after we were seated, it was as if the restaurant forgot we existed. Four tables were sat after us, with menus and water, before I had to get up and ask for menus. Once they brought over menus, the brought 2....for a party of 8! We didn't get water for about 10-12 minutes and after the hostess brought us water, the waiter came over and just asked if we wanted anything additional to drink then said "be right back." Well, he never came back. The hostess said she would go get him, but then ended up taking the order on her own because he was NO WHERE TO BE FOUND. If it weren't for her, we would still be sitting there. Actually, I almost made the group get up and go to Mellow Mushroom because the first 15 minutes we were ignored.
When our food finally came, I got shrimp tacos and they were very sub par. The shrimp was cold and so were the sweet potato fries I ordered. I would give the food a 5/10, but am willing to try their brunch as I've heard great things.
However, within 2 minutes of getting our food, the waiter brought over the check and said "no rush." I WAS LIVID. Now that your "duties" are done since we have our food you can give us the check and leave? I didn't even get the guys name because he was at our table for LESS THAN 5 MINUTES. The whole experience was horrible, and I hope to GOD that this waiter, who was lazy and rude, split his tip with the hostess who did ALL of his work.
So so so mad.
