After posting my review, I received a response from the owner that included a copy of my receipt showing that he had credited me $10 for the dessert issue mentioned in my review.  He ended with this sentence, which seems to indicate that I shouldn't give his restaurant another try:  \""Thank you for your past patronage and I wish you the best in your future dining experiences elsewhere.\""  An odd response, particularly when it appears that I am not an outlier in terms of my service experience.
