First time visitor. Anniversary dinner with my wife so I was hoping for a very very memorable experience. In making reservations, was overwhelmed by the politeness and courtesy of both the hostess, Patti, and the front desk innkeeper staff person, named Shannon. This first impression was in dramatic contrast to our actual dinner experience.
When checking in for our 7:00 PM reservation, there was a back up at the hostess stand. Patti appeared to be doing everything on her own, and had no greeting assistance from additional staff. After being seated, things started to fall apart.
Though Patti had prepared and presented a bottle of our select white wine at the table, my preference for a cocktail was the start of our service issues. Possibly due to a back up at the bar, my cocktail wasn’t delivered to my table for at least 20 minutes. It was apparent that they were short staffed this evening, and the wait staff was being assisted by bussers who were trying to help.
It was clear that the wait staff was overwhelmed, and that the bussers weren’t necessarily trained to properly assist.
A request to have our wine put on ice at the table was met with a “deer in the headlights look”, as if it was out of the ordinary. The wine requested in advance was in a bucket without ice.
We ordered a dessert to share, vanilla bean crème brûlée, which was tasty. At the same time, I ordered an after dinner drink, that arrived 10 minutes after we finished our dessert.
The crowning blow, was when a busser came by when I was in the middle of my after dinner drink, served 10-15 mins after our dessert, and asked if we would like dessert. I had to remind her that we had already been served dessert. It was clear that the right hand did not know what the left hand was doing.
I attribute this to being short staffed. In addition, it’s clear that there needs to be more training for bussers who are assisting the wait staff. Patti was friendly and certainly open to feedback and advice. I appreciate that.
The food was certainly tasty. We recommend the bistro chips, and for an entrée, both the stirfry with ahi tuna, and the steak tips & frites. The drinks were also good, but as implied above there was a disconnect between orders and promptness of service at the bar.
We might return, but it is so competitive in Wolfeboro with other great restaurants. We will probably first try other venues to see how they compare.
Not to complain but the AC was pretty cold or blowing rate on us. Actually saw another couple leave because of it. Service was average but maybe they were just too busy.
Disappointing once again.
We come here every time we are in Wolfeboro.
Will continue to do so.
