Last night however was a very eye opening experience. When we arrived we were told that there would be a 30 to 45 minute wait for a table. As we had arrived at 5:35 and our show was not until 8pm we were fine with that. Needless to say at 6:55 we were still waiting for our table. Every time we went in and asked the hostess Alexa how long is her 45 minutes she would say (rather rudely) it is just an estimate. With her attitude we asked to speak to a manager. When the manager came (Dan) we found that she learned her attitude from him. We were finally given a table at 7:05. Alexa said you have more than enough time to eat, I said you don't know how long it takes me to eat and she said that is your problem. When my husband said we might not make our show tickets she said to him That is your problem. When my husband asked her to repeat what she said and the manager asked her also she did and he did not correct her on that.

I will say that the wait staff there is wonderful. We had a waitress Cheryl that not only got our food to us quickly she got the manager to comp a round of drinks.

They also failed to tell us when we got there that there was Birthday Party of 48 people that took up a majority of the dining room. If we had been told that we would have gone elsewhere to eat.
The hostess Alexa looks to be about 11 years old! She must be either related to the owner or dating the manager - seriously, get a real hostess.

Anyway, we could not get in Glenview last night. Had to come home and find something to eat out of our own kitchen ............... bummer. Saw in this morning's newspaper that there was a rock and roll party at Savannah and think that is why Glenview was packed to the rafters!
