Cringing, craving, bingeing, braving... you always have an opinion on what's hot and what's not in your city and we just love to hear it. Besides, there's no better place to satiate that itch to bitch!
Ruined my weekend lunch with family.
1. Waiters barely spoke English
2. Forgot to put in orders for two main dishes and a drink
3. Didn't have the courtesy to apologize or make amends
4. Wait staff were barely around and impossible to beckon
5. Didn't check in midway through the meal to check if everything was ok
6. Didn't refill water or bring out a new bottle
7. Didn't offer or remind us of a dessert menu towards the end of the meal
Food itself was passable. lasagna was the only saving grace. Corn fritters had goddamn chart masala. Yuck. Pizza... read more

Greetings Dear Friend,
While I know that my words and apologies may not help roll back the unpleasant experience you had yesterday, I can only request you to accept my personal apologies for the same. While the intent was not at all to ruin your weekend time with family, but inadvertently if it has been so, then I deeply regret this. I personally feel very bad because this caused a lot of discomfort and inconvenience to you and your family and marred your family outing. In this incident, we seem to have deviated from our team’s goal of giving our guests a good overall experience with...read more
I appreciate your response and understand my original comments have been edited too. May I suggest that this is really about the basics. Especially when you cater to a well informed customer base that has normal expectations. Not exaggerated expectations of someone to wait on them hand and foot.

Greetings Again,
As I said earlier too this is indeed about basics and I too consider the service aspects to be more of a hygiene factor, hence expect the same to be taken care of by default. So no two second thoughts about the same.
In fact reading through your comments, i am yet to digest that our boys could go so wrong [seems as if it was indeed a bad day for you as well as us, no matter what we did ;-( ]. Goes to show that we are indeed human after all. Again as I mentioned earlier, we dont take such kind of guest feedback lightly, even a rare occurrence such as this, and...read more
I am glad that you have taken this feedback to heart and will address these issues. While this might be a statistical outlier for the establishment, for someone that was looking forward to a good afternoon, it was a series of small missteps that culminated in a forgettable afternoon. I rarely write online reviews and took the time to pass along my observations and ideas only because I've heard about the promoters behind this franchise and their dedication to this restaurant. Few might care to thread these and paint you a complete picture. And no, it definitely wasnt a bad day coming into Little...read more

Thanks for your ideas as well as your wishes. Hoping to have some one-on-ones with you in future if possible. Am sure they will be as informative and engaging as the online threads.
