WORST SERVICE IN SEATTLE!
1 Star Rating: Not Recommended

03/10/2008 Posted by mclucero11

I just moved here from NM, where the service is not the best, but even I was appalled by what happened at Crave last Saturday. We arrived in the a.m. to find there was a 1 hour wait for a party of 4. So, finally after waiting 2 hours, we were next on the list! Waiting patiently, we noticed another group of 4 come in & hug a waitress. She served them mimosas in the waiting area and continued serving her tables. ***** ******** ****** ****** ******* ****** ********* *** *** **** AFTER ANOTHER 15 MINUTES, SHE COMPLETLEY SKIPPLED OVER OUR GROUP TO SEAT HER FRIENDS! *** ******** ********** ********** *********** ********** ********* We asked to speak with a manager, but were told there was none available. The hostess also told us that that particular table was reserved for parties of 5 ONLY! Which was a complete lie, because there were 3 people sitting there earlier. And, the table of "friends" were only a group of 4. (Same as us) Then another waitress told us she just didn't see our name ?! I guess she didn't see the other 10 people who were before her friends either?! Eventually after waiting for 2 1/2 hours, our breakfast took almost 40 minutes to arrive. There was no green chile in the potatoes (as stated on the menu) and they had no clean mimosa glasses. **** **** ***** ********** ************* ***** ****** ************ OUR SECOND ROUND WAS SERVED INTO THE DIRTY, USED GLASSES FROM OUR FIRST ORDER! UGK! ****** ****** ********* ********** ********* ********* ******* *** Our water glasses went unfilled the entire meal, and we would have ordered several more round of mimosas, however our waitress was completely inattentive. I watched one cook texting on his cell phone, then continue cooking without washing his hands. It was completely disgusting. I would not recommend eating at this restaurant.

Pros: Pomegrante Mimosas were great

Cons: service and cleanliness were dreadful

Insider Tips

Where to Sit

If you're dining alone, grab a seat at the counter---with so few tables, it's easiest on the staff if customers only use as much space as is needed.
