Was in la conner this weekend with my 2 yr old daughter and pregnant (= hungry) wife - after waiting 5 min with still no water, menus, or eye contact, I asked the waitress politely if we could order. She said ""just a minute."" 5 minutes later and still no service. I got up again and asked if we could order. The waitress scoffed ""how long have you been waiting?"" When I said more than 5 minutes her response was a flippant ""that's all!"" and she stormed off. I told my wife we were leaving, walked up to the waitress to tell her how amazed I was that she thought it acceptable to behave that way when she passed responsibility defiantly to her boss (who stood quietly watching the whole episode). Told the boss what happened and questioned how she would allow it, and she said just sit down. Said no and that I couldn't believe she'd allow it (then swore saying ""BS"") and the manager grabbed my arm forcefully to try and physically move me out of the restaurant. I've lived in NYC, Seattle, SD, SF, LA, etc. and never encountered this brash and absurd behavior - even back East where things are more direct. Ridiculous. Don't eat in this dump and subject yourself to similar (dis-service).
Pros: nothing
Cons: everything
