won't go back. thefoodis good and the portions are generous. however, the place is small and the lines are long. they don't have call-ahead seating and they don't take reservations.
we thought it was worth it to put up with this because we like thefoodand atmosphere. that is, we thought it was worth it until last night when we were treated so rudely we vowed not to return.
we had chosen danny boy's as a good spot to meet two other couples who were in from out of town for the holidays. we were asked to cram in a booth when we requested a table because all the tables down the center of the restaurant were "reserved" for a party of 25. really?
they finally found us a half table/half booth in a corner, but we had barely finished wiping our mouths after the last bite when our server came over and said they didn't mean to rush us but there was a party of 15 waiting to use our table for their group. seriously? we hadn't even been sitting there an hour. then to press the point the manager literally pounced on the table to snatch up our bill folders and our server all but pulled the chairs out from under us.
i would understand the bums' rush if we had been causing a problem. we were just six adults trying to eat and catch up.
this is lousy restaurant management and we will take our business elsewhere in the future. there are too many other good restaurants in the area that act like they are actually glad to have you. if we wanted to be treated like cattle, we would have gone to mcdonalds.
