Sevy's Kitchen - Watsonville

Had the absolute worst experience here last Wednesday night. We had hoped to come in and celebrate our anniversary with my mother and father in law. The restaurant was next to empty and the service couldn 't have been worse due to our waiter consistently just wandering around and hanging out at the bar talking to other staff. To both order our food and our drinks we had to go ask the hostess and bar tender respectively to send support. Our waiter would go missing for 10 minutes or so in the back somewhere only to return and make excuses. Had I not been with my disabled father in law I would have left after waiting 15 minutes for a drink order. Getting him there and seated was battle enough so we waited it out. I asked the bar tender to take our drink order and he said he would get our waiter. Waiter shows up and immediately fires a first excuse, Sorry we are so swamped and perpetually understaffed. There was not a single person in the back room and only a handful of tables in the front/back patio and several staff roaming throughout. We got out drinks and then he said he would be back for our food order. When he finally came back to take our food order he saw someone he knew across the room and began to shout the persons name while standing next to us. Yo dog it 's me from the studio. We are studio mates remember Honestly it was pathetic. You are not too cool for this job and your reggae dub band isn 't all that big the dude didn 't even recognize you. When he finally popped back to reality that he had a job to do he said we could still order from the happy hour which was well within time when we had showed up. (5:30) We ordered and then he came back to tell us that it was past time for him to push it through. (6:10) Not a big deal really wasn 't sweating this so we ordered our food and had hoped to order a second round of drinks but he took off mid sentence. Eventually went to the bar to order another round and they said they 'd send him. Every time he came by he acted annoyed and shuffled around like he was the enlightened one and couldn 't stand to be bothered. Eventually got our food, got some boxes from the hostess and I ended up going to the bar to pay since he didn 't come check back on us. I told the bar tender I was done waiting around on the guy to do his job and he apologized and seemingly agreed. As we were leaving the waiter came to bring me the check concerned we were exiting without paying. I told him I was done waiting around on him and checked out at the bar. He looked confused as ever and I had exhausted my energy by this point so I spared him the details he didn 't pick up on. $200 tab, would have had a better time taking burritos to beer thirty.

Bread was stale. Fish was fine, chips were cold. Ravioli dish was marginal. Waiter was nice but someone, waiter or kitchen, forgot one of our entrees. Cooks left after putting out our food so we couldn't get anything. We all donated food to the person who didn't get any. Wouldn't go back.
