  1. My husband and I had a very negative experience at Cassatt's today. Over the past 9 years we have frequented Cassatt's a few times per year. Every time I go back, I always remember why it's not more often. The food is fine but nothing special. The serving sizes are very small - particularly the "lunch salads" (and I am not a big eater). The prices are a bit steep ($9.50 for a BLT?). The real downside is the service which is at best slow and uninteresting, and at worst downright rude and snotty. Today, my husband and I witnessed the manager telling an elderly woman with a walker to move from a 4-top to a 2-top at lunchtime. The woman was there with what appeared to be her daughter, who became indignant because the 2-top tables are close to each other along a banquette. The 4-tops have more space around them. The manager said that they had to move because a larger party MIGHT come in and need to sit there. What?! Did he not have eyes to see that the woman who was already seated had taken quite a while to sit there and that it would not be a tremendous sacrifice for them to have allowed them to stay, and had any imaginary 4-tops coming through the door to wait a few minutes for a table. The manager ended with a haughty and indignant "Well, if you stay here, I will not serve you!!" Fortunately the woman's daughter said that they were leaving. My husband and I had just ordered our food and we too considered leaving as well, and would have had we not been short on time. We will not be returning until we hear there is new management and they have figured out their place as a neighborhood bistro and not a Michelin-starred restaurant!
