I stopped by for the first time and unfortunately decided to leave before being seated. As I was walking toward the front desk, the employee immediately started speaking before I had even reached the host stand. I couldn’t clearly understand what was being said, and the interaction came across as unwelcoming rather than greeting a guest. First impressions matter, and I didn’t feel comfortable staying, so I chose to dine elsewhere.
