Recently had a work Christmas party there. My company paid for a meal and an open bar. There were about 50 of us. I am aware of 2 people that asked for to-go containers. I observed the owner chastise one my my co-workers when she asked for one. She got one plate, with a little bit of everything on it. She was unable to finish because of a medical reason (not that it's anyone's business). The owner said she should not have taken that much food if she couldn't finish it. He then proceeded to make an announcement over the loudspeaker that no one could have a to-go container. First of all, if she leaves the food behind, will it just be thrown out? Any other action would be ILLEGAL, but I deign to speculate.
Did my company not pay for this food? The servers certainly helped themselves to our food after they served us. I work in the industry and I have no problem with this. It should be kept out of sight of the customer and certainly not happen until we have had our fill. I was astounded by these events. I mistakenly assumed that the owner was our "friend" in the community.
On a positive note, the bartender was a gem! I pray we tipped you well sir! read more
