OK, I'd like to say that I haven't been in hundreds of bars and restaurants over the years, but I have. In a number of different cities and countries. But this is the first one I have ever been to, ever, anywhere in the world, where I have been chastized at the bar for sitting At The Bar without ... being seated by the hostess. WTF?!? At a table, sure, that makes sense, but at the bar? \r
Hey, Ms. Bartender: If your establishment has a policy completely unlike any other regular bar protocol, you might want Not to assume that people will know it. Snap at the hostess, not at your customers.\r
All we did was simply sit down, two of us in two open bar stools, and suddenly we have the bartender lashing out at us. Pretty strange.\r
The wait service was better at the table we eventually got, but made a point of taking my dirty silverware off my appetizer plate to save them for the main course. Please.\r
Food is ok, atmosphere is real good, service is medicore at best.
