Well i went to universal today for the second time since i got my pass. Now ive been to universal a couple of times through my life. Ive been to WDW alot more . I loved universal the rides were great the cast members were great islands was great too rode the Hulk twice loved it. But my prob is with City Walk.

So we leave islands it was open to 8 okay but not great the studios were only open to 7 o well. We were looking for a place to eat. We looked at all the menus and finally decided on Latin Quarter. We walk in its a 25 min wait thats cool we dident have res so its cool. We waited got to our table and thats when the fun began.

We dident get any service for like 10-15 min. Then when we did get service all we got was a guy with water and when we asked for a server he ran off. Once she came over she dident ask us if we wanted drinks just what we wanted to eat so my bro thought he woudl go ahead and order his sprite and i my coke. She proceeded to run off so figuring since i had to wait before i flagged her down and placed our order.

I ordered the black bean soup the shish kabobs and my bro got the fajitas chicken and steak combo cool. So she brings out some rolls like 10 min later then my soup still no drinks just water so i told my bro were probley not gonna get our drinks. mind u we bascially only saw her twice since we started.

When she brought our meal i politely asked her where our drinks were she gave me this Why u asking me look and stormed off. Now i forgot to mention my black bean soup came out like seconds before our meal did so i had both sitting at the table. so after that we dident see her for like 10 min again we were done so she decided to check on us it was actually more like 20 min. once she came over i told her we wanted to get the tres leche for desert and the check at the same time so we could pay and we wouldent have to wait.

Well she brought the dessert and no check now im kinda getting steamed. So she finally brings the check after i asked her 2 times politely. Fortunaly i had cash so i could just leave it and go. That nightmare was over now on to nightmare 2.

I decided to go into the club next door called the groove. Well i must have had sucker written all over my face cause soon as i get in this guy is yelling at me. It was one of the bartenders he was like sir SIR i was like yes hes like it looks like u need a drink in that hand. Now i really just wanted to check it out but i was kinda wanting a drink so i got a margarita. He was makeing it and was telling me to sit and he was trying to make small talk with me so id stay and buy more drinks i was not trying to be rude but i wanted to move onto the other clubs. We talked for a min while he made my drink and i left.

The only good out of the evening was when i went to the cigar shop. I figured id get a nice smoke to have with my drink and please no flaming i dont do it all the time just once in a while. The guy in there and me had a nice chat about cigars he rang me up and i left.

So all and all my experience was not near as good as i would have gotten at pi. Next time im sry im just gonna go to pi. Im sure ill try the other restaurants but not gonna go back to the clubs. So watch out for the Latin Quarter not a good choice. Also thanks guys for giving me ur suggestions that helped alot.:thumbsup2
 
I've realized that getting good service is becoming rare at Disney or anywhere else.I went into Rainforest cafe at Animal Kingdom around 11 am or so,they sat us and that was the last employee that came anywhere near us.We literally sat there 20 minutes,nobody came so we walked out.
 
i forgot to say this but i did get a chance to fill out a questionnaire about my experience at city walk hehe poetic justice.
 
So all and all my experience was not near as good as i would have gotten at pi.

How did you come to this conclusion? You had a bad one-time experience at a couple CityWalk venues and you're writing off the entire place so you can unfavorably compare it to another place where similar things can (and do) happen? :confused3
 

thats not really what i meant. What I meant was the clubs at City Walk were not as good as pi now not everything is better at pi but the clubs i went into were not and i did almost all of them. It just my opinion im not writing off the whole place i said i would try it again.
 
Sorry you had a bad experience but's it's good you're going to try again. I haven't been to PI in years and since it's a lot further from my house than CityWalk, I don't ever think of going there. If that had happened to me, I would have asked to speak to a manager and told her/him to fix the problem...I have no problem speaking up when I'm not getting what I'm paying for. Of course...I usually get the worst server in the history of servers which is why I don't go out to eat more. :rotfl:
 
I have never done the clubs cause thats just not my thing but we had a bad experiance with Margarittaville last year and the service was awful but doesn;t mean I wouldn't go back and sorry you had a bad experiance with them but like metro said I would have demanded to see the manager and pretty sure they would have made it right.
I tend to be a person that gets walked all over at home when getting bad service at a resturant but when it comes to our vacation I am a totally different person .
 
That nightmare was over now on to nightmare 2.

I decided to go into the club next door called the groove. Well i must have had sucker written all over my face cause soon as i get in this guy is yelling at me.

This doesn't really sound like a nightmare to me.

I have to agree with Damo here. The bartender trying to have a conversation was a nightmare but the cigar guy making small talk was good?

Sounds more like just preferences rather than a nightmare. You didn't feel like talking to the bartender but you did feel like talking to the cigar guy.

Glad you are going to give it a try again :goodvibes
 
I'm glad you got to fill a questionnaire. You should've spoken to the manager but I know the feeling of just wanting to get the hell out of there.

I've never been to Latin Quarter but I'm sorry you had a bad experience there.
 
We done Latin Quarter before also.The place was pretty much empty,so we sat at the bar ordered our food.While we were waighting my Dw wanted to see what the upstairs looked like.Before she got half way up the stairs,A lady rudley told her she cann't go up there.Now it's game-on.I sat @ the bar listening to her giving her both barells:rotfl2: The waitress was argueing back with her.I'm just sitting there listning:lmao:
Well after 1min of that DW wanted to talk to the manager.After all that we got a free lunch.

There is no excuse for bad manners in our book!!So go over there heads and tell managment.We pay alot to have a good time,they will listen:thumbsup2

Other then CW we had problems @ DW(ESPN),SW(counter service),BG Tampa.So it's not just @ CW.
