This is for a visit from October 2015.
A big group of us were in town for an event and made reservations at Pier 54 for a group dinner. The service was not good at all. We were 20 people separated into multiple tables. It took a while for the waiter to come and take our orders and to bring us our drinks. Then, things got worse when it started to rain! Obviously, the restaurant cannot control that, but what they can control is them helping us and they didn't. We had to move the tables ourselves underneath the limited area that was covered and at one point, the waiter was just standing there watching us scramble and move the tables and didn't even do anything. When the food came, it was cold and dry. And when we asked for our check, the waiter offered separate bills for each table which we gladly accepted since she offered and then later when we expressed concern about how long the bill took, the owner came out and said it took so long because we asked for separate checks. Hmm.. let's rewind there... the waiter offered so we gladly accepted otherwise we all had cash to pay for the bill. My last comment is that I honestly think this restaurant shouldn't have taken our reservation because they were not equipped to serve such a big party.
