"We had a nice server, she was a bit inexperienced, but that didn't bother us because we could say that she worked hard and tried to do the right thing for all the tables she visited. I realized she wasn't properly trained. Our server came to our table with the wrong order. When I pointed out that the court was not what I ordered, she insisted that I was wrong. A few minutes later she came back and apologized for the mixture. No big deal, it happens. Another server showed up with our dinner, and again it was the wrong order. The owner came by and asked what was going on. We told him and he said our server was new and then offered us free dessert. I thought that was a nice gesture, but not necessary. He went on and on how great the desserts were and how happy we will be after trying these amazing creations. He also told us how important we were for him. What really worries me was the owner never returned to our table to see if we were satisfied. By the way, my pasta meal was boiled and tasteless, I guess the cook was also new. We paid the bill and left the standard 20% tip. Before I left, I came into my pocket to call a business card, I tracked the owner, gave him my card and stormed out. He came to the parking lot and told us we went too fast. Really Anthony? We sat on our table for 20 minutes after our plates were cleared and my husband even ordered a cup of coffee. Much time to ask us how our meal was, and a lot of time to send over Dessert. It wasn't the dessert that was really important, it was the empty gesture and the wrong concern that told us how important we were for him and his restaurant. We went to the Ocean Twp Ninos every Sunday night until it went well. The servers there weren't well trained, but we did it because they were nice people and the food was good at this place. If he wasn't such a madman, I would have shot this place again."
