     This was my second visit to this establishment.  It was a late lunch 3:00 p.m. for four women including myself.  The good news is, the restaurant is pleasant enough and has clean bathrooms.

     Although there was only one other table of diners the service was horrible.  It took the waitress forever to come to our table.  The menu (which was a piece of paper with a very limited breakfast/brunch fare) said that they had Gluten Free Alternatives yet when I told our waiter that I was a Celiac Person she did not tell me what alternatives they had.  In addition to eggs they did have a Lobster Roll.  I asked if I could have salad with the contents of the lobster roll on top of the greens,

     We waited at least thirty minutes until our orders arrived.  During this time our waiter did not come over to offer refills or other drinks.  No bread or other goodies were brought to the table.  When our order finally came, I thought that they were kidding.  My salad in fact was a side order salad put in a bowl and there was approximately 1/8 of a cup of lobster salad which was hidden by some carrot curls.  I know that I am not exaggerating because one of our party did get the lobster roll luncheon with a side salad.  When I questioned the waitress she was bored and uncaring.  We called over the Manager Anthony who was apologetic and offered us a desert.  We did not want desert, we wanted a waitress that did her job and lunch!

     Since this is the second and I might add the last time that I ever go to Jonathan’s I want to remind the reader that I had the same miserable service and salad with shrimp the last time that I visited this really BAD restaurant!
