So disappointed... we were excited to try another Ramsey restaurant, and based upon prior good reviews we decided to give GR Steak a try. But from the moment we walked up to state our reservation, something just wasn't right. We arrived 10 minutes before our reservation time to the hostess table, and she said we needed to wait till it was closer to the time... um, ok - kinda weird, but no prob.
Then we were finally seated, and we were put at a table where there is a drink bottle cart right behind it - so I jumped multiple times when waiters came by to drop off/pick up bottles. Disturbing... but hey. Then came the issue of how cramped the restaurant is - the 'rear end' of the waiter for the table next to us was almost in our faces as he helped them... appetizing, NOT! In addition to the cramped spaces, the restaurant is very loud - and managers tend to hover everywhere, where they are literally standing next to you as they look around the restaurant.
Next... our service - or lack there of. Our waiter dropped off a drink menu and didn't come back with the food menu till almost 15 minutes later. Originally we did want drinks, but at this point we were getting annoyed - so we declined. We looked over the food menu and had decided on the dishes we wanted... however, another 10/15 minutes passed and still no waiter. At this point, we've had enough and decided to leave on empty stomachs. We like enjoying a nice meal at good steakhouse - but there is a certain level of expectation not only on the quality of food - but also the quality of service. Sorry to say that we will probably never be coming back...
