text: I have to say that this was the absolute worst service I have ever received. As someone who used to work in the restaurant industry, I am very lenient to servers who may take a long time to get back to the table or who may seem a little stressed. However, Ferdinan at Max Brenner had to be the worst server I have ever had. \n\nI knew we were in for an interesting dining experience when I ordered an IPA and he didn't know what that was. The rest of the meal was filled with awkward comments, and him reading over my friends' shoulders when they were on their phones. At the end of the meal, he did apologize for the bad service and said the restaurant was closing in April, so they were short staffed. Let's just say we were less than shocked. \n\nWhen we left the restaurant, my friend made a comment to the hostesses about the service we had received, and both of them looked at her and simply replied, \"okay.\" I have never complained to somebody at a restaurant about my service before, but I would expect them to at least express some sort of apology. \n\nAnyways, the food was alright- nothing to write home about. I will say the chocolate dishes looked fantastic, but it's safe to say that I won't be coming back to try those.
