We came here for mother's day brunch. The restaurant was by no means full and all of the outside tables were available (10+ tables, I think). They told us we couldn't be seated because all tables were reserved.
We asked if we could just sit outside since none of those tables were taken and promised to be quick. They refused to seat us saying, ""What if all of the reseverations show up at once?"" Hmmm. They did say we could wait for an open table, expected around 1pm (it was 10am). The point is that there were several open tables, including ALL of the outside tables. I'm not sure what they were thinking.
We went to the Motley Cow and, when strolling by an hour or so later, observed virtually nobody sitting outside (just a few inside for that matter). Not sure what the deal was, but we'll definitely not be coming back. Very rude, very uninviting. Happy Mother's day!
