Holiday Cheer....with a Side of Grinch
Met 7 former co-workers for a little reunion lunch. Reservation process went smoothly and our table was set up and ready when we arrived. Our server was very patient with us-we hadn't seen each other in over a year and there was lots of catching up to do. We all got light lunches, salads and whatnot, but the point was getting together with friends. Our server seemed totally on board.
One of our group made brownies to celebrate all the birthdays we've missed celebrating together, and we asked for dessert plates. Our server informed us that Rosewood has a policy against outside desserts and that we weren't allowed to eat it there.
They have a POLICY? I've never heard of such a Grinchy, miserly, bah-humbuggy response to 7 elderly women wanting to celebrate birthdays.
They have a POLICY? Against people wanting to use their restaurant to meet, eat, drink? Because let's be very clear here: we bought and paid for our lunches and drinks.
So, the food and service and ambiance were lovely. 5 stars.
The POLICY? 0 stars.
We won't be back.
