Today we tried Ladera Grill in Morgan Hill as it had good ratings. Unfortunately the experience was very unpleasant. We sat outside it was a beautiful day. The server came and brought our menus. They had some items which were specials for today and we decided that we would try them. We both decided to order the Turkey Croissant Avocado and Bacon sandwich and two ice teas with straws. They came back with the ice tea and then provided use with straws that were made for cocktails. They were almost half the size of the ice tea. So you couldn't use them as they we sink down into your ice tea. I had thought that maybe this was a joke or a gage but the server assured me that this was not. As they had run out of straws and all that they had were cocktail straws. When we gave our order we explicitly gave the server directions on how to prepare that order as there are somethings I am allergic to. When we received our orders the sandwiches were supposed to come with bacon and avocado and I explicitly said no sauce on mine and it had a pound of sauce on it and it was soggy. Also there was no avocado on either my husbands sandwich or my sandwich, mine also had no bacon. After we received the food the server disappeared for a long time and we had to call the restaurant and ask for them to send the server out to us in order explain that the order was incorrect. The server wasn't sure if the sandwiches were supposed to have avocado or not he said he hadn't read the menu so he would need to check. He also apologized and said that they had a new cook today. After he had read the menu and realize I was correct and he apologized and said that he had to take my sandwich back and redo it all over, so we had to wait for my food but husband still had his food and they were going to bring him a side of Avocado for his sandwich, as they had forgotten this on his sandwich as well. After they brought my sandwich out the manager came out and apologized for the long delay and that the food didn't come out right the first time. I was taken back of how unprofessional that this manager handled everything. You would’ve thought he would’ve at least said your ice teas are compensated on us or something to that effect after the long wait. Instead he just made excuses that they know that the cook messed up, and while my husband had his food, he had to wait for me to eat, if we were going to eat together. At that point I lost my appetite and we left after paying for the bill. I understand that this restaurant receives high stars and that is why we went. We were very disappointed, we will never go back here again as we are foodies and we could not believe how unprofessional everything was ran. We were planning to go here for dinner because of the review but I am glad we tried it out for lunch first so that we didn't have this kind of...

Visited this restaurant last night. I'm an attractive, single woman traveling on business alone and I was treated like dog excrement on a shoe. I was forced to sit next to a group who were spilling into my table and nothing was said to them, even when one of them loudly demanded that I be placed elsewhere so they didn't have to move, despite there being other empty tables. It was embarrassing. Then I was pretty much ignored for the entire meal. I had to wait to order for an excessive amount of time. No one ever came back after I got my meal to see if it was okay (it wasn't), if I needed more wine or water (I did) or if I wanted desert or anything additional (I did). I waited 20 minutes after my meal before I finally flagged down another waiter for my bill. I had valeted my car and gave him a big tip and my ticket to go get my car. Instead, he handed me my keys and told me it was around the corner and I could go get it. It was dark, raining and the valet had parked it in some dark lot around the corner somewhere. Are you kidding me?!

Regarding the actual food, for nearly $70 for a meal for one, I expect bread that isn't dried out, a steak that is more than fat strips and mashed potatoes that aren't bloody from the steak (that was supposed to be medium, but was bloody rare). I would have complained if my waiter had ever shown back up. The mixed vegetables were limp and both the vegetables and mashed potatoes...
