Great service and food as always. Had a girls lunch date scheduled for 12:15pm. We had some food and drinks and were taking our time, enjoying our lunch. The manager found his way to our table, started cleaning and reaching over and around us, saying nothing. We assumed they were ready for us to leave but it make things super uncomfortable for us all. We asked if they were ready for us to leave and they didn’t acknowledge us and continued cleaning over and around us. Hated this part.
