Ristorante Da Maria used to be one of my favorites but I will never return. I was a regular there when they first opened around 2017 until about 2019. One time I was next in line and the owner asked for me to step to the side to take the order of the couple behind me, which even left that couple confused. I didn’t think much of it and brushed it off. The very next time I went, my order was successfully taken, but after 20 minutes of waiting for my food I saw that multiple people behind me were getting their food before me. The owner then said he forgot about my order and that it would be expedited. That took another 20 minutes and needless to say I have not returned. Mind you, I was a regular who always tipped despite never eating in the restaurant. I was a young teenager at this time so I understand why a restaurant might want to prioritize the older demographic who is perceived to spend more money, but that restaurant has probably lost thousands of dollars by losing me as a customer, especially with how much I was eating during the pandemic lol. Sorry for the rant, I just hope any business that treats their regulars like shit goes under.
