4 people for Mother's Day brunch. 3 orders came out correctly, mine was the wrong item. The server said there was a mix-up in the kitchen and it would just be a few minutes to correct. Well 25 minutes later, my meal arrived. Meanwhile, I told everyone else to go ahead and eat while their food was hot - so they were pretty much done by the time my meal came. The server ended up comping my meal and offered us a free dessert, which I appreciate, but by then the experience had kind of been a disappointment so we didn't linger.
CIRCA at ClarendonResponded on June 12, 2025
Thank you for your feedback and patience on Mother’s Day. We sincerely apologize for the mix-up and delay with your order—it’s not the experience we aim to provide. While we’re glad we could comp your meal and offer dessert, we regret the impact on Mother's Day. We’ll reach out privately to gather more details and we'd love to welcome you back and ensure a flawless visit next time. Corey Neamo, Director of Operations
