Service was slow, half an hour after we were seated, the waiter finally came over to take our order. We never received bread. At the end of the meal when the waiter was moving our bread plates in front of us to use as dessert plates I said were we supposed to have had bread, he said yes but never apologized for not bringing it. Our water was never refilled until I got up and did it myself.
