I SO WANTED to like this place. The hostess seeme...

I SO WANTED to like this place. The hostess seemed nice (especially since my French is so dusty), but that's where the charm ended aside from the interior decor. *sigh* I was the first guest, the only American, the only single person (that I can tell) I'm not sure what happened, but it took forever to get me some water, then forever to order, then forever for oysters, then they forgot my scallops and even tried to charge me for them.

The gentleman who was in a full black suit appeared to be the manager- he didn't even offer an apology and apparently didn't care one bit that the service and food were not up to par. This literally just happened. I made an online reservation abt a wk ago, requested to sit outside- my rsvp was for 12pm when they open- there is no excuse. It took them 20 mins to get to me: they served other guests first- I thought that maybe it's because they're serving groups first. Who knows.

I spoke up and asked the waiter (close cropped hair very thin and pale) if there was a reason why everybody was served before me, and if it was because I'm american. I know...silly american moment. But I can't help but think this when this is the third place I've experienced something similar. Well, I guess it didn't matter that they never offered to make it because I had to be somewhere for 2pm anyway. It should take 1.5 hrs for oysters and scallops w veggies... oh yeah but they forgot the scallops smh

I tried speaking French. Not sure if they don't care like Melanias new fashion statement or if it was intentional. Either way, I'm not going back. I wouldn't recommend it. At least I saved money. Even their bread is sub par. How are you running a legitimate piece of French antiquity and your bread is not fresh/ garbage?

Again, who knows...
