I
recently
dined
at
The
Modest
Butcher
and
unfortunately
had
an
incredibly
disappointing
experience.
From
the
moment
we
entered,
there
was
no
one
to
greet
us,
leaving
us
standing
awkwardly.
Eventually,
when
a
waiter
did
arrive,
the
service
was
unprofessional
and
disorganized.
Orders
were
consistently
mixed
up,
and
the
drinks
were
served
embarrassingly
late.
In
fact,
one
of
the
drinks
arrived
just
as
we
were
getting
ready
to
leave
–
an
unacceptable
delay
considering
it
should
have
been
served
with
our
meal.
Throughout
our
time
there,
our
assigned
waiter
was
nowhere
to
be
found,
despite
there
being
only
a
handful
of
occupied
tables
in
the
restaurant.
It
wasn't
as
if
they
were
overwhelmed
with
customers.
The
lack
of
attentive
service
made
it
difficult
to
address
our
concerns
or
ask
for
any
needed
assistance.
Even
more
disappointing
was
the
quality
of
the
food.
Our
starters,
the
gnocchi
and
warmed
olives,
were
incredibly
salty,
to
the
point
where
it
overpowered
any
other
flavors.
It
felt
as
if
we
were
licking
a
salt
block
rather
than
enjoying
a
well-balanced
dish.
Moving
on
to
our
mains,
both
the
butcher
burger
and
crispy
chicken
burger
were
extremely
overcooked.
Additionally,
the
fries
that
accompanied
both
burgers
were
served
cold,
further
adding
to
our
dissatisfaction.
The
halibut
we
ordered
was
extremely
overcooked,
and
given
its
exorbitant
price
of
$50,
the
portion
size
was
disappointingly
small.
Additionally,
I
feel
compelled
to
mention
that
the
guest
who
ordered
this
dish
fell
ill
later
that
night,
leading
me
to
suspect
that
the
quality
of
the
halibut
may
have
been
the
cause
as
they
felt
completely
fine
during
the
day.
While
we
sincerely
hope
that
this
was
an
isolated
incident
and
that
the
management
takes
necessary
measures
to
address
these
issues,
we
cannot,
based
on
our
recent
experience,
recommend
dining
at
The
Modest
Butcher.
It
is
worth
mentioning
that
we
have
dined
at
The
Modest
Butcher
on
several
previous
occasions
and
had
experienced
good
service
and
excellent
food.
However,
our
recent
visit
was
a
complete
letdown
in
terms
of
both
service
and
food
quality.
We
were
disappointed
by
the
lack
of
attention
provided
to
our
concerns
by
the
absent
waiter.
Considering
our
past
positive
experiences,
we
can
only
hope
that
this
was
an
anomaly
and
that
the
management
takes
necessary
steps
to
rectify
these
issues.
As
it
stands,
we
cannot
recommend
The
Modest
Butcher
based
on
our
recent
visit.
