Hawthorne Restaurant Guide

I have never encountered staff so rude and I have eaten at restaurants around the world. We had a reservation, arrived on time, and were seated at a table by the maitre d. After we had ordered, the waiter said, "Why are you sitting here?" We tried to explain that we were seated here by the maitre d. The waiter and maitre d (who we later found out were brothers) continued to blame us numerous times for sitting there, and at one point even insisted that we used a fake identity to get the table. Believe me, the table was not so great that we would have wanted to be there in the first place! They insisted that the table was for someone else, and tried to move us. I am pregnant and we were there with two small children, so for us to be moved after settling into a table with our children is not a small task. But there were no apologies from the staff, and we were blamed for sitting in the wrong spot. We were then told that we should not have brought children to their establishment. Apparently they do not want children here, so families beware. A maitre d with 23 years experience (or so he bragged) blamed the customer for sitting at a table that he escorted us to. This maitre d has no idea how to treat people. Take your business to a family friendly place- NOT HERE!!! DO NOT EAT HERE!!!
