RI Restaurant Reviews & Comments:
 Terrible, terrible service
by Rick Picard on February 15th, 2009 on Blackwater Tavern |

I am very disappointed. We went to the Blackwater for a "special" dinner and after we "sat ourselves" we waited 20 minutes for a teenaged waitress to come over. We ordered a small appetizer and Burgers for our meal. The appetizer was very good, stuffed mushrooms, but took a half hour to get. We waited for an hour for our burgers and in the meantime we watched others customers come, eat and go? We asked the waitress where our meal was and was assured the burgers where coming. After 1 1/2 hours we left. We never got the meal. They did not charge us for what we ate but where unable to explain the delay. In this economy its sad that a restaurant owner would leave his fate in the hands of a teenaged waitress who obviously does not know how to get food to customers in a timely manner. I hope the owner sees this and charts a new course or the Blackwater will dry up, shrivel and die. I can see they have invested heavily in this restaurant and it would be a shame to see it go down. |

Misleading Pricing??
by food critic, new harlem ite NY on September 3rd, 2008 on Wharf Tavern |
| Summer 08 w/group- visit-- asked server reason why larger lobster charbroiled was priced lower than steamed smaller lobster --- server came back and said there was mistake on menu and we must pay higher price...alleged manager came over, with even ruder side boy(asst manger?) who stated they would never put adjustment or menu or put MP and they insist we m pay higher price for larger lobster and indeed there was another item on menu with incorrect pricing-same policy...we were angered to no end, AND literally they became angry at us --a few ordered the lobsters which were good which meant they were Delicious to begin , correctly sized, not overcooked, otherwise almost everything else was putrid..the clams left the chowder before being served in the dishwater soup, the swordfish which was mentioned as fresh was tough, thin, and doused in sauce...everything was not good, and top off, they were angry at US!!!! |
