    Overall the experience was great. The atmosphere was lovely, the food was delicious, and most of the staff were fantastic polite, professional, and even had a great sense of humor, which made the evening enjoyable. Unfortunately, one server’s behavior negatively impacted our experience. From the beginning, she seemed dismissive, frequently responding to our requests with “huh?” or “what?” sometimes making us repeat ourselves unnecessarily. While this could have been due to noise, it didn’t happen consistently, making it feel intentional, as though she was mocking my friend’s English. I may be wrong. The real issue, however, was her unprofessional attitude. At one point, she openly mimicked my friend just a few steps away from us, which was completely inappropriate. When she didn’t receive a tip, instead of reflecting on her service, she confronted us, sarcastically asking if there was a problem and even offering to bring the manager so we could "file a complaint." Tipping is based on service quality, and while the rest of the staff was excellent, her attitude made it impossible to justify leaving one. Despite this, we had a wonderful time thanks to the great food and the exceptional service from the other staff members. I hope management addresses such behavior to maintain the restaurant’s otherwise excellent reputation.
