Worst restaurant experience ever! I was looking forward to a great experience at Cabana Café and the opportunity to support a downtown business in Newberry County. However, the excitement abruptly ended once I entered the restaurant.To be time efficient, we made reservations for a large group consisting of 21 people, reviewed the menu and selected lunch choices in advance. I visited the restaurant the day before our scheduled luncheon to confirm the reservation and to take our detailed written lunch orders.On the day of our reservation, our large party was not greeted warmly and was told by the owner (Starr Chappell) that we could not use the written lunch order list to order meals when dining in the restaurant due to how orders are inputted in the system and assigned to seating arrangements. This was not a significant problem and we proceeded to order meals with the owner who was visibly irritated and extremely rude to members in our group.I talked to the owner privately to resolve any issues to no avail. She continued to be rude and unprofessional, and it was evident that she did not value our group as customers, so we left.Based on this experience, the negative reviews referencing the rude, unprofessional attitude of the owner at this restaurant and her other facility in Clinton are warranted.
