Washington Inn & Wine Bar

After driving 2 hours on a Sunday when posted hours of operation are open until 9pm, we arrived at 8:05 and were met by smug staff that immediately told us they needed to find a manager to deal with us. The manager walked up to us and said, we are a reservation type of restaurant and we are done for the night. This smug young man turned away myself, my wife and 3 children after driving 2 hours to check into our hotel and dine at their restaurant. In the middle of the off season, plenty of open tables and NO policy that says they are reservation only. Change your posted hours if you intend on turning paying customers away, especially a family, in a town that already does not have a lot of options to eat on Sundays. If this was my restaurant, which I own 3, this manager would be fired and the staff re-trained on hospitality. What a disgraceful way to handle guests. My wife and I dine in this restaurant numerous times every year when coming down for our time away and will be sure to NEVER return as well as make this treatment known to others.

Easy 5 stars, maybe 6. Shayna was the HIGHLIGHT of our evening. Her spiel was perfect, timing was impeccable, she was interested in what we had to say and had all the answers to our questions. Top notch server! Would HIGHLY recommend to request her as your server. Also, Ian was a super nice young gentleman who has a quick eye, polite demeanor, and takes the lead when the need is seen. Had tuna tartare, which was 10/10 until the amuse boosh arrived, on the house, and was exceptionally exquisite. Finished with short rib and fosters which were both outta this world. Will be dining here again!!
