Per Se Restaurant Review by PatrickBateman(m): 6:41pm On Jun 19, 2015
So to start off- the food was phenomenal as expected. Definitely 5 stars. However, the service provided by our head waiter left much to be desired, and soured the experience that would have otherwise been amazing. To start off with, when asked whether we wanted 'still or sparkling' water, we answered 'tap water is fine'. The waiter then said 'WHATEVER' and walked away. Then, he comes over and says (clearly annoyed) 'I know you brought your OWN wine, but here's an ipad with our extensive wine list.' In order to bring our own wine, we had to pay $180 corking fee- it's not like we were being ridiculously cheap by bring our own wine! Next: we ordered cocktails soon after being seated, but they didn't arrive for 30 minutes after we had been seated (and it wasn't until someone in our party asked to check on our cocktails that someone even came over and apologized for the delay). The rest of the dinner went smoothly- we had an assortment of servers come over with each course and explain in detail what we were having- they were all great, as were the people who cleared the table and refilled our drinks. But then when we received our bill, things went from the server being rude at the beginning of our dinner to just plain unacceptable by trying to scam us. We had originally ordered a supplement that we cancelled as we got too full to eat more as the meal went on. However, they initially still included these charges on the bill- and this isn't a computer generated bill where you can claim you forget to take something off- this was a hand-written check that was totaled at the end of dinner. It clearly seemed that he was trying to keep that extra $200 as a tip for himself- and after that experience there was no way we were leaving any additional optional gratuity. (Service is already included in the cost).
So overall- exceptional culinary experience, with one rude individual who deserved to get as s fu c ked.
