overall, the service could have been much better. i can't fault the waiter entirely because he was left all alone which just means either poor scheduling or they were unexpectedly busy for a monday lunch. he seemed a little flustered but he could have made things a little easier for himself by doing a little multitasking. he would take drink orders at one table and then disappear for 5 minutes. then come out with drinks take their food order and disappear again for 10 minutes. i can understand not wanting to overwhelm the kitchen but he could have taken orders at multiple tables and then put in all the orders so that people didn't feel ignored for long periods of time. he knew it wasn't great service so he apologized and admitted to being in over his head with the lunch rush. at least we weren't in a rush and the food was good.
