Cafe Saint-Ex

Words can't describe how terrible this place is. The staff is by far the worst I've ever experienced. Bad service, period.

I've been there for both nightlife and dinner. I'll pass. Could have stayed near where I lived for this experience. Coming into D.C is a few and far between experience, but this didn't help the D.C cause.

I think their waitress was on drugs. She was spacey and seemed lost.

Cafe Saint Ex is a shit hole-in-the-wall. The only reason it still has business is because it is located in a great area. The bar tenders in the basement treat customers like they are dirt. I went to Cafe Saint Ex for a bachelorette and we went to dance in the basement. First of all, the bar tenders hardly make eye contact and never smile. They take your order with no reply or positive affirmation. It brought down the positive mood of our group and made us feel like crap. Then the bachelorette, who was wearing a customary veil, was standing at the bar with the drink in her hand. She set the glass down at which one of the bar tenders took her drink from between her fingers when it was half full. They did not cut her off or anything but told her she must have made the story up. There was only two bartenders behind the bar with no bar back and instead told our friend she was a liar. They wouldn't make her another drink unless she paid for it. When we complained to the manager, he said we would have to move our party to the top floor if we wanted him to make us another drink. In the end, it wasn't about one drink. The treatment was horrendous and the management and bar tenders talked down to us and did not rectify the situation. I will not return to this bar, especially with all the other great bars in the area.
