The manager refused to return my calls to discuss our event. They ran out of food at the event. We ordered the two entree buffet. Before half the people went thru the line they were out of dressing for the turkey. They blamed it on more people slowing up and too many people taking too much food. I monitored attendence and I am sure no extra people showed up. Probably too many took too much which could have been avoided if they had served in the buffet line. He might have discussed this with me before hand. I thought I was ordering a 2 entree dinner buffet with better disposable dinner ware. Well we ate china from the event center but it was still a buffet. I was charged the served option ($2 more) probably because of the china but they did not serve. I think this is another communication issue. The caterer called and rushed over demanding payment the same night. I paid him by check and asked him to hold it until later in the day on the next business day, Monday, because I needed to transfer money to my checking account. Nope, he ran that check right down to the bank early. Lucky I also made a cash deposit early because both the deposit and the check cleared the same day.. What a jerk.
