We walked up the hostess desk at about 8 pm with two for dinner. We didn't have reservations but we saw that were lots of empty tables so we requested a table. We were told it would be a twenty minute wait. Ok that's fine. I asked if we could sit at the bar and have a drink while we waited. The hostess had to go ask someone. She came back and told us no. Even though there were only 2 people sitting at the bar and there were lots of empty chairs, we were told that they needed time to catch up from being busy earlier. She had to do what she was told. We asked to speak to a manager and there was no manager on duty. We were finally seated and there were several empty tables that sat empty the entire time we were there. The olive bread was dry, at least a day old. The butter was rancid. The vinegar and oil carafes were filthy. I had to wipe my hand with a napkin it was so dirty from touching them. I wish I had brought my phone to take a picture. My hopes weren't too high for the food that was yet to come. My pasta carbonara was actually very good but the $26 plate of spaghetti bolognese was just ok. Not great. All in all, a negative experience and a waste of money. Just like all my experiences at this hotel.
