This is my only negative review in the 9 years I have been in the Sarasota/Venice area. It was a very busy night, but there was no excuse for this poor service. Extremely unorganized establishment. From not having my reservation written down, and seating us at a table reserved for someone else (where immediately one of the waiters rudely made sure we didn't stay at that table), the night started off bad and only got worse. Our waiter acted like we were there just to socialize and not eat, which was not true. We got one drink each, no water refills, and managed to get one appetizer in the span of 3 hours. We would have paid for dinner and enjoyed it if offered, as the food did look good and the appetizer we got was well prepared. It took an hour just to get the bill, but boy did he come back quickly once we put cash in the bill holder. There was one woman who acted like she knew what she was doing and cared, but the rest of the staff did not. We felt very unwelcome and will not return.
