Excelsior

Boston, MA 02116

Terrible attitude among the staff.
1 Star Rating: Not Recommended

04/17/2008 Posted by Sox68

Worst example of rude staff that I have ever seen, anywhere. The attitude among employees and patrons at this popular spot made me appologize to my girlfriend and her friends for taking them there. Boston has many places that treat their customers well, so avoid Excelsior if you would like to enjoy your evening. On a side note, get ready to hear the words "We are accomodating _____" after asking any question.

Pros: Decent martinis, good wine selection.

Cons: Everything else
