Does this irritate you or am I being a grumpy old man?

I went out to dinner with my partner. Nothing fancy. We order our drinks and just barely touch the menu when we are asked if we wanted to order. Dude we just got seated and ordered drinks we didn't have a chance to look at a menu yet. So we say we need a few more minutes. Hardly even a minute passes and she's back asking for our orders. Still not ready we ask for more time. Rinse wash and repeat about two more times. We both ordered starter salads and our dinners. Well we get our salad and we barely make a dent in it and we are getting our dinners tossed in front of us. About 10 minutes later she comes by and says no rush and gives us the bill. My partner wanted to order dessert but nevermind the damn bill has already come and we barely even saw our waitress, didn't even get a refill.

Am I wrong to feel like we weren't wanted there and that we were being rushed along to get rid of us?

@Greenbare It wasn't busy. Place wasn't even half full.

Usually with me, the waitress disappears the first time you say you need more time, and then we're like "is she ever coming back?"

@BrewCityBarfly Then you have to flag down another waitress to figure out what's going on

@SW-User I've encountered this before at other places but it still irks me everytime. One time I went to a deli and they straight up refused to serve me and I still to this day don't know what I did wrong besides walk in the door.

Sorry that has happened to you @Astro

@SW-User The way I see it is that it's their loss. Less money they get to make.

Would have pissed me off to no end.

@LyricalOne I was not impressed. First time I've ever been there too.

@Astro I’d probably never go back.

Nah that would annoy me too. Let me at least take my coat off, jeez.

Bad service. I'd drop a note to the owner or manager.

@Butterflykisses24 The only good thing was that the food was good.
