From the moment we sat down, the staff behavior was concerning. It started with some tension involving the kitchen staff. One of the kitchen team members came up to get a glass of water, and it was obvious that the staff behind the pizza counter were harassing him. It felt unprofessional, and my partner and I genuinely felt bad for the kitchen staff, as it seemed like he was being picked on or bullied by the employees upstairs.
Unfortunately, things went downhill from there. While we were enjoying our meal, a server behind the pizza counter made a completely inappropriate comment to a group of young teenagers sitting behind us. The kids were just laughing and enjoying some hot sauce—totally harmless—but the server suddenly said, “I bet you guys say the N-word,” and went on to accuse them of being racist while referencing video games they might play. The kids looked shocked and confused; they weren’t behaving in any racist manner at all.
It was appalling to witness this—patrons being publicly accused of racism for no reason—and it completely ruined the atmosphere. Not only was it unprofessional, but it also made everyone in the restaurant extremely uncomfortable. My partner and I couldn’t finish our food, and we didn’t even attempt to go upstairs as planned.
I will continue to support other Goodfellas and Wise Guys locations, but this particular location is off my list entirely. If you don’t want to experience hostility or unprofessional behavior, I strongly recommend avoiding this venue.
If you haven’t had a drink made by Carl at Wiseguy Lounge, you’re missing out on a top-tier cocktail experience. Not only does he mix like a scientist, but he’s got the smooth charm of a jazz musician and the timing of a stand-up comedian.
I asked for a surprise cocktail, and this man paused, looked me dead in the eyes, and said, “You trust me?” Like a fool in a 1920s speakeasy, I nodded. Five minutes later, I had the best drink I’ve ever tasted—bold, layered, and smooth with a finish that made me reevaluate my life choices.
