So upset. I grew up going to Pizza Gram due to my family living in the area. Tonight, I was so excited to finally bring my boyfriend out here (35 minute drive for us now), and I raved about the food and service the whole car ride..... I should've kept my mouth closed.
We got sat right next to the door, okay it's a table, I didn't want to wait for a bigger table, that was okay. Our waitress took TEN minutes to even approach us for a drink order (she had four tables, one of which was done and had their check). We asked her for a draft beer menu, states there was none and said the three she could remember off the top of her head, alright, we'll go with one of the three. She came back to take our order, I ordered garlic parm wings and eggplant parm, she walked away before my boyfriend even put in his order (assuming she thought that our appetizer was his meal- but I specified that was our appetizer)... anyways, came back with a LIMP salad, seriously threw pieces of lettuce. I asked for bread, she came back with it but with no butter lol. My boyfriends beer became empty and our waitress was nowhere to be found from our salad/soup being dropped, to our appetizer coming out 40 minutes later, so my boyfriend went up to the bar for a new drink. The bartender looked at him THREE times, didn't even give him the typical "I'll be right with you", so he walked back to our table after five minutes of being ignored from the bartender just chatting with a guest.
Alright, so now I'm getting really annoyed, I've been in this business awhile (waitress, expo, bartender, host, I get it) I understand all aspects, but when you have three tables (2 2 tops, 1 6 top) and they're all content, you can give subpar service to all!! A table came in thirty minutes after us, they were sat, I watched her greet them with bread, a smile, and an introduction! Surprise! We got none of that. We got our appetizer after 40 minutes, I watched that table that was sat thirty minutes after us get their app TWO minutes after ours!! Then, our entrees came out three minutes after our app was dropped, alright then!! This same table near us, got their full dinners a few minutes after us, looked almost identical to our dinners. We took two bites and packed it all up to go home to eat because at least there we can wait on ourselves and do the same damn thing.
Don't get me wrong, the food here is BEYOND delicious, I have never had a bad meal, but I don't know if I'll come back any time soon though, maybe take out, but dining in? I'll pass. When I do come, I rack up a hefty bill between food and drinks and I've always received wonderful service, I'm just upset I spoke so highly of Pizza Gram lately and it was a let down beyond words tonight :( read more
