I am a native of Newark, and I dined at the ALK because of its stellar reputation. Hopefully my experience was uncommon because I would like to return to the restaurant sometime in the future. I appreciate you taking the time to read this letter, and would be grateful if you could reply. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely,
I have worked in restaurants before and am currently going to school for hospitality management. As a result, perhaps I more carefully note the quality of service than a typical customer would. I realize that restaurant wait staffs often times get annoyed when they have to serve kids after all, kids can not order an expensive bottle of wine with dinner, and they do not have limitless wallets. As a result of these limitations, service can suffer noticeably especially when the restaurant is crowded with many other high-paying guests, as was the Delta Room the evening my girlfriend and I were dining there. Yet, the service we received was absolutely impeccable. Again, I would like to commend your staff for their wonderful service, and to thank the Delta Room for an overall incredible dining experience. You have certainly gained a life-long customer and a friend. Sincerely,
Joe Student
