text: This was our anniversary a special night We choose LAmore partially for the Love we were celebrating Before we went my husband said he did not want to use the coupon because he told me that coupons are never what they seem to be and owners do not give people with coupons the same courtesy He was right n The food was wonderful Here is the problem We w ere the first guests in the dining room and with our reservations made the day before We were seated at a table in an opening next to an area reserved for a company party that began with an hour of cocktails Not very private or romantic It was kind of like sitting next to the kitchen door in a restaurant As the private party progressed we could barely hear ourselves talk We mentioned this to our waitress asked for a different table but was told the other tables were reserved for regulars nShe was nice polite and apologetic nBefore ordering when we gave the waitress our coupon she explained that the coupon was not valid for the specials and neither did the drinks count towards the we must spend to use the coupon That made sense But we were ordering during happy hour and assumed we would be getting happy hour drink prices even though they would not count against the minimum This was not the case nnThe owner was less than kind He was close to rude His attitude towards us using the coupon was insulting He never made any attempt throughout the evening to come to our table and see how we were doing nor to apologizeoffer to comp our drinks for the horrible noisy table experience We know the waitress mentioned it to him early in the evening His response was normally the party does not stand and talk so long So I guess by the owner it was the party patrons fault that we had a bad experience To illustrate our point on the noise after our appetizers while we were having our main course a table was seated near us by the party as well After minutes they got up and went into the bar to sit where there was live music that was quieter than the party I guess the owner is content with his regulars coming in and does not value new business potential We are disappointed in his attitude and recommend that he stop offering coupons because it doe not fit into his business plan and method of operation nIn the end I guess you get what you pay for If we had paid full price my husband would have been more insistent on being treated like a patron dining in a fine restaurant with his lovely wife on what was supposed to be a romantic quiet evening
