not returning, ever. 4/26/2015
i decided to go toginzain bloomfield, ct to have a special birthday meal. i was excited that they had chilean sea bass on the menu as it is a particular favorite of mine. once the meal was served and i had my first bite was in my mouth, my waiter approached me with a question. between his soft voice and the loud music, i really couldn’t understand what he was asking. i finally figured out that he was asking if everything was ok. i had my meal, but hadn’t even gotten to enjoy my first bite due to his interruption, so i guess, for just having been served my meal, everything was ok, so i said “i guess so.” another couple of bites into the meal let me know that everything was not ok. the fish did not taste like chilean sea bass. it tasted like overcooked plain whitefish – virtually tasteless. being hungry, i ate the bed of vegetables the fish had been on. when i complained to the waiter, he brought over the manager who proceeded to tell me that since i had eaten my meal and had told the waiter that the food was good on my first bite there was nothing he could do for me. he made it quite clear that he really didn’t care if i had enjoyed my meal. so, i ate the rice, paid and left, having paid $27 for basically vegetables and rice. i left 3⁄4 of the fish on the plate as it was inedible. the manager’s attitude was inexcusable and i will not be going there again.
