I was so disappointed by Il Pigalle, and will never go back. Three of my friends and I went for Sunday brunch, ordered champagne and eggs benedict. Tasty but very pricey. The bill came and we paid, but the waiter came back and asked if there had been some problem with the service, as the tip was low. We had all been chatting during the bill-paying part and didn't realize that one of us hadn't ponied up enough. So we gave her a poke and she was a bit short on cash so we chipped in for her share. Then he stood there and insinuated that the tip was still too small and guilted us into putting more in. This was the first time in 35 years of dining I had ever experienced such blatant rudeness.
