My fiance and I recently picked il Casale in Belmo...

My fiance and I recently picked il Casale in Belmont Center to go to for a small celebration/gender reveal dinner with our parents and a couple of friends. My fiance made the reservation through American Express and was told it was fine to bring in cupcakes for the dessert. When I called to double check on the reservation I was told we would be charged $5 per person for a cake cutting fee for the cupcakes and they needed to know what the ingredients were and where the cupcakes were coming from (they were coming from a local bakery in town). The manager seemed a little aggravated on the phone by the inquiry. And although I wasn't happy with this, (especially given that I just wanted to bring in a few cupcakes), I understand that there are many restaurants who charge a cake cutting fee -- but fast forward to the dinner itself. Once everyone was seated, the server came around and asked a few people for their drink orders, but did not ask everyone at the table. Someone called her over and asked to place a few more drink orders, including a bottle of wine. I was never asked if I wanted a drink and did not want to bother the server again, so I wound up waiting until I placed my dinner order. The food itself was okay, but not great. And when it came time for dessert, when we were trying to arrange everything for this gender reveal moment, the server came and sort of slammed down the plates in front of everyone, but did not bring out silverware. Plus, there was an envelope with an ultrasound in it that went with the cupcakes, that was not brought back out, that we had to ask for back. Overall, I was just disappointed by the attitude of the server and manager because they both just seemed inconvenienced by our being there, and I was surprised by how we were treated, considering we picked this place to celebrate a special moment (and one you can't get back). (I also would like to add we did order dessert in addition to bringing the cupcakes). My overall experience from this night left me feeling pretty down about the whole celebration, and I really don't think I'll be going back...
