Tributary

My Partner and I went for Easter Brunch on 3.31.24.
I was so excited because it was the 1st time in 14 years that I wasn't hosting or going to a family dinner for Easter.
I even made reservations a month and a half early.
So the big day arrives and I'm wearing my dress I bought just for this event.
It starts out well enough.
We are seated at a table for 4.
Then a few minutes after we are seated, we ask for a waitress so we can order some drinks.
Then a few minutes later they ask us if we can move to a smaller table.
Ok...
We move because we think that they have some people coming who need that space.
There were around 3 tables that seat 4 that were never occupied the whole hour we were there.
Not sure what that was about.
Then the table we were re seated at had this huge wheel chair taking up the whole side of the table.
It was a small table.
It didn't belong to anyone that we were aware of.
None of the staff mentioned anything.
One of the waitresses did say oh, no it can stay there without any further explanation.
My Partner asked if it could be removed from the table.
The manager and others had a conversation about it while looking over at the table.
It was very uncomfortable.
My Partner wasn't rude when asking for it to be removed.
I guess they thought they were rude because that set the tone for the whole meal.
Please correct me if I'm wrong but you are supposed to get a clean plate each time you visit the buffet right? The plates were big and there wasn't room for more than 2 plates at a time.
For example, if you have your main course and then are ready for dessert, there's room for another plate.
Nobody comes by to pick it up.
You have to ask, it was pretty awkward.
The tip was already included for the meal so in no way were they going to be cheated out of it.
My Partner ordered a drink also and tipped on that.
The food was ok and they did their best to keep it stocked.
Overall, I'm trying to focus on the positive experience that I had being with my Partner.
If we decide to have Easter Brunch somewhere next year, we might try somewhere else.

Top notch food and service! We booked a business dinner here with bourbon pairings and education.
It was top notch! Big props to the chef and so much credit to Fernando and Katrina, who took care of our group.
Fernando even have more bourbon education after Woodford Reserve shared their knowledge.
Everything was beautifully prepared and cooked to perfection.
If you have an event in San Antonio, this is a great spot to host a large group of clients.

Enjoyed a lovely breakfast with healthy choices.
Staff were engaging and attentive.
Coffee was not good, had to order tea.
