Classic Disappoints

I heard that people love Kate Mantilini restaurant on Wilshire Blvd, and from the outside it looks sleek and modern. My favorite thing about the restaurant are the place mats! They are very cool. Other than that, I wasn't impressed.

Place Mat

Somewhat private wooden booths line the windows, which makes for a perfect business lunch or meeting. The drip-coffee was good, but the service was terrible. It's amazing how much a server can make or break your experience at a restaurant.

I met a long-time waiter with the company and pointed out my horrible waiter. He sincerely apologized and told me "understood exactly what I meant." Doesn't really change anything though... "Come back and try again. The food is great and I'll take good care of you." I also asked him what dishes the restaurant were famous for, or what his favorite's were. I think ti says something that I can't remember what he said!
