Prohibition — Restaurant in Westwood

Went in this place for an interview, (which never happened) and the owner wasn’t there but some other lady was. Ok fine, she asked if I can wait for the owner and I said sure no problem. Then all of a sudden this lady has me setting up the restaurant!!!! I was like Um, ok?????? So, the owner finally comes in (now mind you, I had an appt with her) and the lady that had me setting up tells the owner I was there for an interview. So they start talking in front of me and the owner is like “I don’t know who she is” and yadda yadda. So that gets straightened out and she starts asking me questions while setting up the bar and making herself drinks! Meanwhile we keep getting interrupted by the other lady and they just keep having me “work” as they go back and forth with stuff about the restaurant and it’s like they have no idea what is going on. I ended up leaving and telling her I’ll call her ( I never did). That place is the most unorganized, understaffed( which I know why) and unprofessional place I have ever went to. The two women that own the place I think are married, because that’s the kind of bickering they were doing lol!!! If you are looking to work there, or even dine, stay away!!!!! There are much better places in Westwood. Oh and during my “interview” the owner says to me, Westwood is such a boring town. I am here to turn this town into Hoboken!!! Yeah , not going to happen considering the cops have been called numerous times on the loud music outside until midnight! That got shut down real quick!!! It is residential neighborhood!!

EDIT TO MY ORIGINAL REVIEW

The place...

HANDS DOWN THE WORSE EXPERIENCE I EVER HAD !! I wish I read the reviews before I wasted my time with this place.

Let me start with the ambience :

Nothing really to look at it's just a bar

The service :

service is terrible no matter where you are , the bartender need to go take some classes once their alcoholic drink have basically NO alcohol , and it's served on a dirty glass . They don't even have the excuse that was one time , because I actually ended up with 2 drinks poorly made and served on dirty glasses .

If you sit as a table expect at least 30 minutes for them to even get you water .

The food : they charge $21 for a stale pretzel

The burger is served FROZEN on STALE bread .. and the fries are nothing but soaked in oil . Served after 30+ minutes

This was not an experience , was more like a nightmare , the only reason why there's even one star is because we can't give any less .. so PLEASE save yourself the dissatisfaction and save your money to go elsewhere .

OH!! And the bathroom smells terrible , I'm afraid to ask what the kitchen looks like

Over priced drinks that are poorly made and frozen food is not exactly what you expect when they charge you Manhattan prices at a mediocre bar in NJ

PLEASE GO ELSEWHERE !!! Don't even bother asking for a manager or the Owner ( I was told her name is Maria ) , I tried reaching out to them with no response . I guess that shows you about how much they care about...

I have spent over $500 at this restaurant specifically because it is hard to find good GF American cuisine in the area, and my partner is Celiac. Prior to this, I have given nothing but 5-star reviews to them on all platforms. However, I cannot give a good review to this business because of my last experience:

I ordered $100 worth of GF food well before closing (about 2hrs prior to close). I received a call an hour later that all of the items I ordered were not available as GF options for the remainder of that night. I told them to cancel the order, as my partner cannot eat food that will make her ill.

Instead, they took my $100 and sent non-GF food to me, making sure to only send it out for delivery as the restaurant was closing. I went to the restaurant in person the next time they were open, and was not able to get my money back, nor was I able to speak with anyone who wasn't waitressing that shift. Took my number down, never contacted me.

Save your money and go somewhere else. I'm not giving this place a single cent ever again unless this situation is addressed by ownership. I've ran my own restaurant and managed others in my 15 years working in food service, and this was wildly unprofessional.

Ownership of Prohibition, come stand by your business, instead of allowing it to develop a bad reputation by engaging in bad...
