   My assigned waiter never came to the table, no greeting upon arrival and no thank you or how was your stay and meal. We had a person who was experiencing her 5th days at the restaurant and shadowing our waiter. She was personable and very helpful. I gave directly to her a cash tip and told her it was for her only. She said she would give the money to our waiter and I said no and I would take care of the gratuity on the check.

   My husband and I had Easter Brunch at The Statler. It was the worst brunch I’ve ever had. The only redeeming quality was our server who did a great job given the circumstances. There were very limited food selections on the buffet and the trays were constantly empty taking far too long to refill. The desert table seemed to be all store bought type items and were served on paper plates. The food was salty. For $49 a person the quality of the experience should have been exceedingly better.

   Would definitely go back but given the prices it’s a once in awhile type of place. Food was good but the prices are a bit excessive for what you get.

   Busy time at 545-7. Server was slammed so understand the quick check ins at the table. That did not detract from amazing food love the bistro atmosphere. Could use a bit more zip sauce on steak/mushroom appetizer. Highly recommend burrata app. Magnifique

   Thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear you enjoyed the food and atmosphere. We understand it can get busy at peak times, and we appreciate your patience. We'll definitely take note of your suggestion for the steak/mushroom appetizer and ensure it has that extra zip. The burrata app is one of our favorites too! We hope to see you again soon.

   Granted it was opening day, but the food was just ‘ok’ and it was a bit chaotic overall. Our server did the best she could given the circumstances.
