In my day job I deal with people all the time and customer service is VERY important to me. <BR/><BR/>If I don't get good service at a restaurant, I don't tip period. If I get it, its 20-25% of the bill for the server. I also make sure management knows because they can't correct the problem if they're unaware. <BR/><BR/>Great postMonica Burnshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13801472688555176112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24305423.post-57398887901855654232008-06-11T12:20:00.000-04:002008-06-11T12:20:00.000-04:00Previous "Anonymous" might be getting his wish.

Caturra is opening a third Richmond cafe on Grove Avenue near St. Catherine's, supposedly later this summer. 24 wines by the glass, fresh roasted coffee, great patio and pergola facing Grove. Word on the street is they are opening a 4th location near Atlanta before the end of the year and four other cafes in Virginia, North Carolina and Georgia in 2009. I don't think they are franchising (yet) but a friend told me they have over 70 investors already.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24305423.post-89191818203500970522008-05-28T08:25:00.000-04:002008-05-28T08:25:00.000-04:00Re: The three parts of Cafe Caturra:This is an out...Re: The three parts of Cafe Caturra:<BR/><BR/>This is an outstanding cafe. I stop by every morning on my way to work for coffee and a pastry. Lunch is great too, such a peaceful and cultured oasis from the normal boring panera type business lunch. Dinner may be the best aspect. Excellent wine selection hand picked by owners that truly understand the industry. The developer of 'Can Can' in the fan is now the part owner and CEO of this emerging cafe. He may be among the most knowledgeable restauranteur in the state, so be careful with wine criticism. Most likely, you are just uninformed. Overall this is an amazing value and truly unique idea. I wish they would open 10 more of these.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24305423.post-54092391225472484782008-04-10T15:33:00.000-04:002008-04-10T15:33:00.000-04:00Allow me.

Although the food is good it is too Americanized for my taste.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24305423.post-28577501613160273052008-03-14T19:25:00.000-04:002008-03-14T19:25:00.000-04:00No worries.

And hopefully next time all of the staff would understand the principle of good customer service.pjpinkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01439946083475491666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24305423.post-88935119882820687552008-03-14T12:37:00.000-04:002008-03-14T12:37:00.000-04:00ahhhh! and i just posted about how good the lunch ...ahhhh! and i just posted about how good the lunch is there. of course, i had soup and sandwich. gosh, i am so sorry that the start was not as good as the finish.in vino veritashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03696446621646451574noreply@blogger.com
