What I should have said to the snobbish waiter at tayst the other night:"Just so you know, your simultaneously patronizing and dismissive attitude has sufficiently tainted my experience to the point that I will likely--almost certainly--not be returning. I would think that during a time like Restaurant Week, you would attempt to put your best foot forward, as you are wooing many new customers in the hopes that they will become repeat customers, but you have instead accomplished quite the opposite. Our group of friends would normally tip in the 25%+ range for good service, but we are struggling even to justify 15%. So here's your tip--how about you do yourself, the restaurant, and future diners a favor and find a job that doesn't require you to engage in customer service."
What I actually said to the snobbish waiter at tayst:
"Thank you."
Sigh. I'm a wuss.
I would write about our entire experience at tayst, but one of my friends has already penned a much better review than I could even hope to write, so I will defer to her.
The verdict, I believe, for most of our group: tayst left a slightly bitter taste in our mouths.

Sing it, sister. I had a bad experiance there, too. Not sure why folks don't understand that treating folks like crap is not the best way to get them to come back.
