The vacuuming continued throughout our meal, which honestly spoiled the camaraderie of a 'Birthday Dinner'.Įven though, the waitress and the hostess all knew it was my friend's birthday nobody offered us a dessert menu, just the check. My friend loved her broasted chicken, stating it was the best she'd ever had! The birthday girl had lobster and I was lucky enough to get a bite and it was perfectly cooked and very tasty. I enjoyed the au jus as it gave it a bit more flavor that was lost from the over-cooking. I had ordered it rare and it was more medium-well. At this point, I wish the hostess would have extended her rude comments and had let us know that they were closing soon, rather than having sat us. Not out in the bar, but right behind my friend's chair. Our dinner hadn't even been served and there were still 5 other tables with patrons, and the vacuuming began. It could have used some croutons or other crunch. The salad was just your average lettuce served with a tomato wedge. The bread was quite airy and flattened as soon as the knife cut into it. At the same time I noticed the hostess turn off the 'Dining Room' neon sign and I panicked realizing that they were probably closing soon. A few minutes later, we placed our orders.īread and butter, along with soup and salads were served shortly thereafter. I had a difficult time choosing what to order, as it's not everyday that you come across a place that offers a filet for only $25 and lobster for $30. We were seated and a much sweeter and friendlier waitress came to our table and told us about the evening's specials. I thought she was joking, but judging by the look on her face, she wasn't. The hostess said that she thought we were going to steal the glasses because it appeared that we were getting up from the bar and leaving with them. We first enjoyed drinks in the bar, before walking over to the hostess stand (with drinks in hand) to ask for a table. We dined at Nightingale for my friend's birthday.
