It seemed like our server was new/poorly trained. He seemed generally overwhelmed and didn’t seem to know what he was doing when putting in our initial order and just generally didn’t seem comfortable interacting with customers yet.

I find generally that customer service in DC lags behind other major metro areas in the country and Alamo is no exception.

Oh my favorite was the one server who had her AirPods in. Super professional.

I mean the purpose of the post was to see if this is a typical experience here in DC given that Alamo generally has a phenomenal reputation. Based on replies here it seems like my experience at the DC one isn’t entirely out of the ordinary. I’m trying to decide if it’s worth giving them another shot.

I think it’s just indicative of their poor attention to detail and was sort of a “huh that’s weird” way to start the experience.

I was on a date so I didn’t want to raise a stink right then and there but I emailed in my feedback after getting home.

Yea I appreciate being able to sip a beer during the show but food-wise I’m not gonna order anything more involved than popcorn or similar snack food.

Tipping before you receive service isn’t a tip, it’s a bribe. The not paying next time thing was joke.

There’s no limit of 4. Certain newer large buildings were given permission to build on condition that their residents won’t be eligible for RPPs. Seems like OP moved into one and their new landlord didn’t disclose this (or they overlooked the clause in the lease).

You’re going to be much better off just enabling wifi calling on your phone.

Only during peak times, and honestly given how far away it is it should probably cost even more but metro fares are capped at $6.

Yea this surprised me to. After getting to Ashburn I backtracked and got off at IAD and was floored by the number of people with suitcases getting on the train to ride into town.

So apparently the theaters in the area are franchised out and not actually owned Alamo. I wonder how HQ feels about their brand being watered down?
