Do tell! Can be either SoMD or not. The ones that stand out for me, and it happens that I was with mAlice at all of them:
Chef's American Bistro:
Every time I'd been there it was just bad. Once I went with mAlice for lunch and we sat outside. Asked for an ashtray and, yes he did, the server brought us a dirty one. We get our food, realize we have no utensils. Wait several minutes for the waitron to appear and ask him for some. I don't believe we ever got them. And my memory is of no iced tea refills, or attention at all once our plates were plunked down.
Tides:
A group of us went for lunch. Christy ordered a burger done such and such, blah blah. mAlice ordered the exact same thing with a very minor difference, like mayo on the side or something. Christy's came out perfect; mAlice's was all kinds of hosed up. Her burger was so overcooked it looked like a hockey puck. She asked for a new burger to be made and the waitdumbass actually had to bring the manager over, who acted like a #####, but did put in a new order. And don't you know, the second burger came out hockey puck and hosed up as well.
Catamaran's:
There is a review on here of our disappointing brunch there, with terrible service, sticky tables, bad food, and general stupidity.
Now, mAlice has a reputation as a restaurant terror, but I am her witness that these shortcomings were not her fault in any way.
