We are just back from a great Disney experiece and there was only one black cloud and that was a dinner at the Brown Derby.
We had dinner for four this last Saturday night and even with a PS we waited for ever! Once we entered at least half the tables were empty yet the waiting area was full and they were telling people with no PS that the wait was at least an hour, and more likely more than that. Could it be they are having trouble getting help?
We were taken to our table, not a booth as requested.... and told that our server, Carlos, would be right with us. Well he took his good old time! We ordered our drinks and he was basically ignoring us! Once when I tried to tell him what kind of coffee I wanted and he turned his back and walked away from our table! He seemed disgusted that we did not want appetizer's or a bottle of wine. Two in our party ordered cocktails and the one was not prepared as ordered and the glass of water needed to take medication, never did come until after the dinner!
Our salads came and the server was reminded that we did not want our dinner until we had finished our cocktails. Needless to say the main couse came long before we had asked for it. We felt very rushed! We had ordered the beef filet, pork tenderloin, half a roasted chicken and the grouper. Three of the four were fine but the chicken was half raw! Water glasses had to be repeatedly asked for and were never refilled. The server, Carlos, was no where to be found any time we needed anything and never came back to the table to see if things were okay! Rolls were nice and warm but no butter! Again after repeated asking we got a small quantity of butter and had to ask for more. It came after we had finished eating! It was just pathetic and not the kind of service you would ever expect in a nice place!
We had fantastic servers at Beaches and Cream, Rain Forest, Concourse Grill, and even at Pepper Market but forget Brown Derby!
