I made reservations on Tuesday for a party of eight for a Saturday night reservation which was then followed by a confirmation phone call by the restaurant on Saturday. I confirmed for party of eight. Once my party and I arrived on time for our reservation, I informed the hostess our party was no longer going to be for eight due to members of our party being sick and were not going to be able to make it (this would have allowed you to seat another party of 2 or 3 and keep a table for 5). The hostess handed a buzzer to me. FORTY minutes later we still were NOT seated at our table NOR been notified at the time of being given the buzzer because we were a party of less then six people we would be placed back on a waiting time.

Hat’s off to The Black Whale, their owner, hostess, wait staff, cooks and everyone who helped to make my daughter’s birthday a memorable one! Also a very special thank you to Luna, who is the Gem of The Black Whale. Please go check it out! They...
