I am so livid I am writing this after my experience here tonight. Keeping in mind we had many options for restaurants in the area, I went in here for a nice dinner with my family. We waited 15 minutes for anyone to acknowledge us, waiter came over and apologized...said they were having a band tonight and it just got crazy. Waiter was very nice so we moved on from that...took 15 minutes to get our beers, fine. Enjoyed our meals, were excited to hear what the band was like. It seemed as though the majority of the people coming in were friendly with the band members and a lot of people knew each other. We finished our meals, my parents ordered another beer. Kristen, who was a manager/hostess (?) came up and asked us if we were here for the band. We told her we were eager to hear some songs. She removed our empty glasses and went on her way. We noticed the front two tables closest to the stage were leaving and right away the owner and another employee were clearing the tables and putting chairs up so no one was being seated there. It was obvious to me at that point that they were trying to clear these tables for a "dance floor." Minutes later I noticed Kristen turning around and looking at our table multiple times while speaking to a group of people. Honest, I knew what was coming next. Next thing I know, she was walking up to our table. She approached us and came over to say, and I quote..."It's totally fine if you guys are here to stay, but I just want to let you know that there are people who are here for the band that are looking at your table." I am going to paraphrase the rest. My mother went on to say that she could see that we were being eyed at by multiple people which was not cool...she said well yeah I know, I hope they aren't making you feel uncomfortable. She went on to add, well everybody here knows each other. What does that have to do with anything? We are PAYING PATRONS, at your restaurant (that we are NEVER coming back to). This is not your first Yelp review where people were rushed out of their tables. I don't care which Tom, Dick or Harry wants to sit down, never in my life have I ever been approached by an employee and told that people want to sit at my table in a restaurant. If you are going to reserve tables for bands' friends, put reserved signs down. If I have a time limit for how long I can be in your restaurant, I should have been told before I was seated. If you are going to rush people out of their tables to create a "dance floor", do not put tables there. What would Bar Rescues' John Taffer say???? Kristen did not walk up to any of the other three tables surrounding us, which confused us even more. We later approached her to let her know that she made us feel very uncomfortable. She then tried to tell me that she only approached us because "people were eyeing our table asking when we were leaving or if we were there to stay" and that I was "staring at her" and she wasn't not going to approach someone who was staring at her. What? I am a patron at your restaurant. She then went on to say that she did in fact walk up to multiple other tables in the restaurant asking how long they were staying (never heard of this in my life)...because people were coming in who wanted to be seated. Sorry, is that how the restaurant business works? You approach customers in your restaurant asking when they are leaving? I have never had an experience like this ever. We felt targeted, picked out of the crowed because we didn't seem like we were there for the band, it was uncalled for and extremely rude. We had every right to be there tonight, as did every other paying customer. And can someone answer why you dowse your $16 cheese platter in honey? Back to the Pasta Loft I go. read more
