🤢 2/5 - UGH. Hot and crowded and pretentious

We headed here as a multi-generational family group. We were seated more quickly than expected so I was optimistic. Unfortunately this was short lived. On the positive side our waitress was fantastic. Personable and informed and knowledgeable and fun. I loved her. Sadly it appears that she was left alone to service the entire large outdoor area. After ordering a large platter of mixed oysters, a busboy dropped it without a remark. When we asked him to identify the varietals, he told us “oysters.” When we flagged down our waitress to ask for elaboration she told us she’d have to send over the shucker. After waiting a good long while we gave up on waiting and dug in. Good thing, because said shucker never showed.
We became aware when ordering that the chef is dogmatic. Evidently this means he refuses to make delicious food. I was told that I was not allowed to have cheese on my burger (I don’t eat seafood.) When asked to omit onions from a salad by another member of our party it was a firm “no.” I can appreciate the aversion of a classically trained French chef to modify his art to the base whims of the masses, but that’s part of the gig. This is not case of a patron asking that a dish be completely stripped and remade; it is simply a minor addition or subtraction. I ate my plain burger and it was fine. Due to extensive life experience (and probably my underdeveloped simian palate) I can say that it would have been better with cheese. Dare I say American? I think it is pretentious and obnoxious to dictate food to this degree. If a chef thinks so little of the people he is preparing food for, perhaps he should reconsider his career.
In addition to the chef absurdity, the service was terrible. I am loathe to say this because our waitress was awesome. But there was no staff and multiple things fell through the cracks. One of our parties’ entrees was completely forgotten and took an additional 30 minutes even after we’d alerted the staff to the oversight. The busboys didn’t speak any English and showed zero initiative in helping to get the appropriate information when it was requested. In the end our whole group agreed that we should have done take out food and brought it elsewhere.
