Not sure why, but seems as though the hostess purposely makes you wait for a table when there are ones available. They do not take reservations for outdoor tables, but keep 3-4 empty tables open. When you ask why they have completely setup tables (with utensils, etc) vacant, they give you attitude and answer quite rudely. Reminds me of a nightclub bouncer and how they treat people - very poor. I think this will be my last visit to this restaurant. I'd rather spend my money where it's actually wanted.
The management should be ashamed of themselves for allowing this. Prime location can only take you so far.
