I just experienced the worst service in a restaurant than I ever have in my entire life. I can’t express how much our server sucked a ball sack!! When we first sat down at the table, it took the guy a good 5 minutes just to come to our table and get a drink order. Everyone ordered waters except for me who was in dire need of a cosmopolitan…. Go figure?! Now the server warned me that the drink would take a long time to get since apparently there was a high demand for alcohol by every single person in that damn restaurant. When he said that, I agreed because I was thinking 10 minutes tops. Who the hell was I kidding? It was 22 minutes before I got the damn thing. If I knew that the dining experience was only going to go downhill from there, I would have ordered another one ASAP. O wait, I couldn’t do that because our server NEVER came back to our table after taking our order.
We ordered these chocolate covered bacon lollipops that someone else delivered. When I finally got my drink, someone else had delivered it. When our entrees arrived, someone else delivered those as well. Now I have no problem with someone else delivering my shit because I’ve only worked in the restaurant/bar business and know that when something is up and ready to go to a table, the first person available takes it, but we NEVER saw our server again!!! He NEVER checked to see if we liked our appetizer, he NEVER checked to see if I got my drink, he NEVER got us any refills, he NEVER checked on us to see if our meals were OK….NOTHING!!!!! Did I express yet how much he sucked?
Now we could see our server and understood that he had other tables, bu tlet me repeat, he NEVER acknowledged us after taking our order. He was checking on his other tables, pre-bussing them, getting them refills and more drinks from the bar, even the table he had right next to ours but I followed his eyes every move he made and NOT ONCE did he look our way. He was the absolute worst server ever!!!
I finally flagged a manager over and asked if he could get us a box and our check as I proceeded to tell him that our server hasn’t been to our table in over a half hour but the only response I got was, “Oh, ok. I’ll get that for you.” Ummmmm, hello fucker?! As a manager you’d think he’d be at the very least apologetic if not offer a free dessert but we got no reaction out of this guy after our complaints. He acted as if I said nothing, boxed the food, got the check, ran the credit card, dropped it off and walked away. We didn’t get a” Thank you for coming,” “Sorry for the bad service”, a “Kiss my ass,” NOTHING! After my boyfriend’s mom cashed out and wrote something on the credit card slip about what happened, the server THEN decides to come to our table and say, “I’m sorry I got really busy there.” Irrate as all hell, I turned to this freckled, bald headedMr. Clean looking mother fucker and said, “THEN YOU SHOULD HAVE ASKED FOR HELP!!” I then stood up and walked out. I have no tolerance for bad service let alone rudeness from a server…. Especially when I do the same shit for a living.
What I found out 5 minutes later when my boyfriend and his parents decided tofinally walk out, the server snatched the credit card book out of my boyfriend’s mom’s hands and walked away. He’s lucky I wasn’t in there to see that happen because I would have caused a scene that probably would have ended really badly. How dare he have the audacity to think he has the right to be upset with my statement when he ruined our entire dining experience. All I’m gonna say is that he’s lucky I’m just visiting or my inner Detroit would have came out and whooped dat’ ass!
FYI, the restaurant was Farmers and Fishers, located at 3000 K St NW # 101, Washington, DC 20007. Don’t ever go here!! They suck!!!!
