Waiter: horrible and rude, asked for more tip!
1 Star Rating: Not Recommended

12/15/2005 Posted by jassy

We had a full dinner: appetizer, entrée, dessert and wine. The bill came and we tipped a generous 20% despite the horrible behavior, rude manner and slow service. It was ONE CENT short of a full 20% tip and the waiter came running after us. He pointed out on the check the tip scale 15% is $$ and 20% is $$ and asked why he didnt get the full 20% tip. We couldnt believe the dispute! After such a bad experience, never wanting to return again, the waiter actually wanted his ONE CENT. And that is exactly what we did, we gave him an additional ONE CENT to reach his full 20% tip.

Cons: Rude service, Bad Manners

Editor's Review

Clean, exotic flavors in an art-cafe atmosphere blend right in with the surrounding Greenwich Village bohemia.  See the full editorial review.

Know Before You Go

Jefferson, a few doors down, is chef Simpson Wong's second restaurant. The food and decor are more upscale, and there's a full bar.
