I spoke with a manager last night and she talked with the kitchen manager who said that a new person had been put on that station. When they looked into some of the pre-weighed and wrapped portions, a bunch of them were half the size that they should've been. So that's been cleared up.

She's also going to handle the waiter's unresponsiveness to the situation.

She was very thankful that I called to let her know.

With that in mind, I'd bump my rating up to 3-3.5 stars because I did still have issue with the portion sizes of other items...like $5 for literally 3 bites of roasted veggies.

I think small plates are the biggest rip-off ever. You get 1/4 the size of an entree and you're usually paying 50% the cost of an entree (in most cases). I love the small plates at Apolline because they're a great deal! $6 for a small plate with 2 grilled scallops, a grilled shrimp and corn mac choux. $6 for 3 BBQ shrimp over grits.

Very nicely handled on both ends

It's odd that nobody in the kitchen or server noticed this before it was served.
