Your experience is unfortunately for sure. Seems like they should have been able to accomodate, but I don't know the circumstances of this occasion. Did you make reservations in advance or was your group a walk-in group where your initial place of assigned seating was a problem? I don't know! Anyway, my wife and I both remember there being at least one group of at least 12 that was seated together outdoors. So I would think that a lack of reservations and a sudden request may have been an influencing factor in your experience. Of course I could be wrong, but either way there are always two sides to a situation... what is seemingly apparant and what may not be readily apparent!

Wowser, another gem. After four years, I'm still learning new stuff from reading TOTV. I like the Cattle Baron, we've gone there quite a bit. I had no idea you could have drinks out on the balcony! Thanks Bonny!!

Sorry Topicop, I hijacked.

thanks to everyone for their ideas. i was planning on calling ahead and trying to plan an event. I will try Cane Gardens first. I have been their once and it was good. I was thinking of a Thursday, sunday or Monday night, hopefully it wouldn't be quit as busy. I am willing to pay extra for an extra server if need be.

We had a reservation - were seated at the precise time of the reservation (all 12 of our party had checked in). there was an empty table for four right next to the round table for eight but they wouldn't give it to us and sat four of us a ways away.

I wasn't aware that Glenview took reservations, I thought they were strickly first come/first serve..... Good to know

[chuckinca]

Maybe only for larger groups? And maybe only for larger groups at certain times?

We usually meet at 4:30. Got to Glenview at 4:25, waited a few minutes for the last four people to arrive. Someone told the hostess we were all present and we were immediately seated.

As an alternative to a country club if that doesn't work out, perhaps you may want to look into Red Sauce. They have a side room that is bordered by some outdoor seating. That might be a place you can all be together...

Cane Garden and Lopez can do a good job as well, but we haven't
been there for a while.

Just to give you an update. I have tried serveral times to call and set up a party at the Waterfront Inn's resturant and can't get anyone to take my call or call me back. I am going to call Cane Garden tomorrow and see if I have any better luck.
