| - I've been here several times before and the food is always excellent. However, the rudeness of the staff has finally gotten to me and enough is enough; there are so many other wonderful restaurants in the area that I will have no problem finding somewhere else to spend my money in order to get good food with good service.
My boyfriend and I arrived a little before 2:30pm on Sunday for a late brunch. The restaurant is open until 4pm and at the time we arrived, there were several tables that were filled with happy patrons eating their sweet and savory crepes. There was no line and we walked up to the counter and stood off to the side while we discussed what we'd like to order. My boyfriend had just suggested the smoked salmon crepe when the girl at the counter informed us that they weren't serving any of the savory crepes today. However, the cook was preparing two ham/cheese crepes less than three feet from her as she said this. We weren't happy; I have blood sugar issues and cannot eat a sweet crepe on its own without becoming ill. However, we figured that we'd just get something there and grab something else soon afterward to keep my blood sugar levels steady. We placed our order for two sweet crepes.
As we were paying, my boyfriend asked the counter girl why they weren't serving any savory crepes (mind you, she's saying this AT THE SAME TIME that the cook is folding the two savory crepes he was preparing and placing them on plates to be served to other patrons). The girl responded that they stopped serving savory crepes at an hour before closing. I looked at my boyfriend who checked his watch while I checked my iPhone. He told her that it was just 2:30pm. He then asked if they should be serving the savory crepes until 3pm.
The counter girl changed her tune and said that the reason why they stopped serving them at that time was that they were running out of ingredients for the side dishes for the savory crepes; specifically, she told us that they had run out of the vegetables for the side salads. Right behind her was a large Tupperware container filled with the salad greens and several prepared single-serving containers of the dressing, but I let it go. I assumed that other patrons must've already ordered the savory crepes and therefore, the salad in the container was already spoken for.
We were wrapping up our meal at about 3pm when the counter girl sat down at the empty table next to us for her lunch. She had a plate piled high with salad and mandarin oranges and despite the amount on her plate, there was still not enough there to account for all of the salad that had been in the Tupperware container. The other patrons that I imagined had ordered the savory crepes before us did not exist either. We were left to assume that they simply were not interested in serving us savory crepes.
I would not have had a problem had the counter girl not lied to us. Adhering to restaurant policy is one thing but outright lying to us is quite another. I am a reasonable person and my boyfriend is one of the most easy-going and accepting folks I know; we're fine if you have to limit the menu due to lack of ingredients or time. But to blatantly lie to us? Guess what, Crepes Parisiennes...I don't find that to be acceptable. You can say 'au revoir' to my patronage as I will never visit this location again.
