"We got to our hotel and decided to walk over to this restaurant. Some of us flew in so not everyone had a car available. I walked in and asked if they could accommodate 12 people. I asked, did not say seat us, asked. I got the most god awful looks. No smiles, no let me check, just everyone working there standing around talking to each other. Finally one server must have drawn the short straw because he got menus and said follow me. Ok so I guess you can seat us cool. They push the table together and give us some menus, some, but not enough for everyone. The server asked if it was all on one ticket or separate. We said separate and he got irritated and said “it was going to be busy later and it would be hard for him to separate the checks. What? I’ve never heard anyone say this before. A lot of our kids have been servers so we always try to be kind and tip well, but never ever have we been told this by a server. Finally my husband said forget it just one check, the server just kept on about his busy it was going to get. He wasn’t listening just talking. Making us feel like he didn’t want to serve us. Finally he listened to my husband say just put it on one check. The server left and a new server came. She half listened to our orders, a few came out completely wrong, but we just ate it and tried very hard to not cause issues. They rarely came and checked on us, and the service was super unfriendly. The food was good, it just sucks that we were treated that way, had they said they couldnt seat 12 of us we could have just split up. Also it never got busier by the way. ??‍ Welcome to Lino Lakes lol"
