re: Brennan family of restaurants from best to worst......

Was completely disappointed in Palace Cafe a few months ago. Hostess forgot about us. We waited an hour to be seated, finally realizing that they were seating people straight off the street.

When they realized their mistake, they rushed us upstairs to the far corner where we couldn't even see any other diners. The waiter was uninspired and the food was lackluster.

I wrote a note on their website and surprisingly got a response, about a week later, asking for an address to send some type of gift certificate for a meal on them. I declined. That's how bad an experience it was.
