The worst possible service I have ever experienced. I was here for birthday dinner with family, service took forever. Had to give my order twice. I had to request to place my order from non existent waitress. I received my appetizer and main course together. I was rushed to eat the appetizer quickly in order for my main not to get cold. I was given no explanation as to why my appetizer and main came out together. When complained to “Manager” was given no response. The pasta wasn’t edible and again wasn’t able to complain because waitress never showed up. It was never taken off the bill when addressed with the manager. Terrible experience will never go back and won’t recommend. Who treats people like this!
