First before we get started on this review, I want people to know this was an exception in what we experienced in the past. The food rating of two is not normal, normally great food, great service and a good place to be. Reservation was at 6:00 in the Oyster Bar, because of the rush for the holidays wasn’t a busy, busy night. We were greeted warmly and seated quickly. After 45 minutes we finally placed our order for the night, not because we were in doubt about what we wanted to eat, it took 45 minutes for our server to get back to us. Maybe he wasn’t happy that after he dropped off the bread and water we were still looking at the menu. But really, 45 minutes. I was surprised our food arrived in what I thought was a rather short time. We ordered three prime rib dinners and one dinner consisted of seafood. When our dinner arrived, the vegetables were cold, my wife said her mashed potatoes were cold and my potatoes were cold too. The prime rib was warm, but not like we have had in the past. Without knowing, we have to assume our server didn’t really care to serve us, he let the food sit before we received it. He sure didn’t put any special time talking to us. Didn’t even come back and ask if everything was fine. Not a word, first time in ten yeas eating at Market Place did a server not comeback and make sure we were fine. We eat out food and then waited, and waited and finally when the server came back we asked for two boxes to take some leftover food home for the next day. Twenty minutes later the boxes arrived. We then expected the server to ask if we wanted desert or another drink or do we want the check, NO , just put the boxes down and ran off. Ten minutes later he came back asked about desert, it was almost 8:00 and we said no, can we have two checks. Another five minutes went by and he came back, our friends paid first and then it was my turn, he handed me the little tablet to pay then ran off and came back about a minute later. Grabbed the tablet and ran off. No “thank you”, no “happy holidays”, no “go to hell”, nothing. What an experience. A little over two hours, spending $109.00. Did we leave a tip, yes we did. Why, because in many establishments, sometimes tips are shared. The kitchen did a very good job, our hostess did a very good job, but our server was probably the worst server we have ever had at Market Place. This is not normal, but this is also not right. I’m sure someone in the kitchen knew food was getting cold, comes down to poor management. Surprisingly it seemed like it was slow for Market Place. We mentioned to each other that when it is busy, they are trying in a nice way to give us good service and good food and let’s get this table for the next guest. Disappointed last night. Please get better, please train and support your staff, we want to come back someday, but last night was not a pleasant experience.
