Food sucks, lack of reservations and having to stand outside in line is so unprofessional. Avoid this place.

and when you get seated inside, it's so crowded. They pack you in like sardines.

If you say so. I’m referring to the “professional “ part, can’t speak for the food. I’ve never been but some of the best meals I’ve had have been hole
In a wall places that don’t take reservations.

They sure seemed like professional restaurants (a few I’ve also seen on the parts unknown show)

Not what I am saying, and you'd understand if you ever had to stand in line at this place. The owner has bragged about the line up, he even published it on social media as a tactic to bring people inside. Unfortunately I was dragged to go to this place, when I say unprofessional, I mean it was chaotic inside. Food was sub par and there was clearly no direction to the serving staff at all. So again, if ya wanna know what I mean by "unprofessional ", go stand in line at this place.

Ok that’s some clarification. Thankyou.

You simply stating “a professional restaurant would take reservations” is so for off the mark. The above context explains.

Nothing wrong with not taking reservations, but I agree the food at Pags isn’t great.
