    The only issue we had was the waiter did take a while to bring an order other than that we always have a fabulous time.

    For the "singles night" on February 14th, we reserved a table on January 20th! After arriving at the bar, we were greeted and led by a hostess to the smoking section without being asked if we wanted to seat there. And I was with a cancer survivor. Before we had a chance to ask the host to move our table, the hostess abandoned us. The personnel stood by the stairs and some of them silently passed us while we waited there for fifteen minutes. In the end, we had to grab a waitress who was walking past. She handed us a tattered menu. She told us she had to either ask the hostess or give her a call so we could request the change ourselves when we asked to switch tables. She disappeared, never to be seen again. After a while, we departed without being served, the hostesses conversed without seeming to care about any of the customers, not even the one who had seated us.
