点评:We had a 4:00 reservation which was when the restaurant opened. The host showed us to one of the higher tables with a round glass top set on top of a barrel. I find higher chairs to be uncomfortable and politely asked the host if we could instead sit at a different table. If it was not possible, I expected the host to say something along the lines of “I am so sorry but we cannot because….(whatever the reason was.) Is there anything I can do to make this more comfortable for you?” Instead, he just barked out “No!” I regret that we didn’t just walk out then.
The table was extremely uncomfortable for me. The barrel it was sitting on bulged out (as barrels do) at just the wrong spot for my comfort. I could never get close enough to the table top to eat comfortably.
Then our food was lukewarm at best. The restaurant had just opened, leaving us to wonder just when the food was cooked.
In addition, the regular table which we had asked for instead of the barrel table remained empty until we were leaving. So why did the host refuse to offer it to us?
The one bright spot was our server, Lauren, who was attentive and professional.
翻译:我们预订的是下午4点的座位,餐厅刚好开门。服务员领我们到一张高一点的桌子旁,桌子上放着一个圆形玻璃桌面,桌面放在一个木桶上。我觉得高椅子坐起来不舒服,于是礼貌地问服务员能不能换一张桌子。如果换不了,我以为服务员会说“很抱歉,我们不能坐,因为……(不管是什么原因。)请问有什么可以帮您换桌吗?”结果他直接吼道:“不行!”真后悔我们当时没赶紧离开。
那张桌子对我来说非常不舒服。桌子底下的木桶鼓了起来(木桶总是鼓起来的),位置也不太舒服。我怎么也坐不近桌面,吃起来不舒服。
然后我们的食物最多也就是温热而已。餐厅才刚开门,让我们琢磨着菜什么时候做好。
而且,我们之前要求的那张普通桌,而不是木桶桌,一直空着,直到我们离开才离开。那么,为什么主人拒绝给我们提供这道菜呢?
唯一的亮点是我们的服务员劳伦,她很细心,也很专业。
