Bad Food - Bad Service

I agree with that Gina! My best friend (and I love her to pieces) has been a waitress for years, even after getting a degree! She made a lot of money on tips. When we were in NYC, we had a few places with terrible service! She still insisted we all tip at least 15%... finally one girl stood up and said she was sick of tipping for bad service. But that's what a tip is... something extra for excellent service. I don't think tipping is required. It's not like they don't get paid a base wage... if they want tips, they should EARN it! I still usually give a little when the service is just okay, but when it's bad I won't leave anything.

I feel the same way as Gina and Lindsey! Good service deserves a reward, bad service does not! I am glad though that you guys at least got your drinks free. I probably wouldn't go back there.

My daughter and I left all our thoughts on two comment cards - hopefully management will see it.
