TAKE THE TIME TO READ THIS! Pier 4 was recommended to us by friends. We made a reservation for a window seat, party of 8 three weeks prior. At that time, we were told that it was not a problem. Upon arrival the initial two of our party informed the hose of our arrival. He asked them to wait in the bar until our entire party arrived. She (my mother) then confirmed that we were getting our window seat as reserved....he promised a ""good view"" of which she then was more stern and requested our window seat. He dismissed her like she was someone who didn't deserve her attention. After our party of 8 was there - they did seat up promptly, however, the host kept looking over with a smug look. No sooner did we sit down were menu's handed to us and a drink order taken. Before the drinks were delivered another server came over and asked to take our order. Approx 2 minutes after sitting. It was an apparent move to rush us - even though 90% of the tables were vacant. I am not an aficionado of restaurants, but so far - I was not happy at all. We had two waiters and a bus boy. Both waiters were glum and older....the older I don't mind, but lacked personality completely. Almost as if they were upset they had to work. That was the feeling all through dinner.
Pros: The View and plenty of parking!
Cons: Host(s) are arrogant and not helpful, Staff awful. Saw one waiter swearing about losing a table!
