It was my birthday while in town, so I decided I wanted a nice meal to celebrate. It was a solo trip, and I wanted to do something at a small table or bar. I made a reservation beforehand via Whatapp, and that went smoothly. When I got there, I was surprised that I was seated at a large table alone when there were smaller options available. The service was good until a large and loud group started to be seated next to me and my waiter then turned all his attention to them.
Once they were seated, the smoking started and I knew I did not want to be around that. Felt a little let down by the experience and didn't even get dessert. It was almost like the wait staff were rushing me on. It's a shame because the music in the place was great and the food and drinks were great, too. I dislike that I was seated where I was, and the smoking in the restaurant was terrible. Don't know if I will go back. If I do, I will be more assertive about my experience especially given the amount of money I paid for my dinner.
