  VISITOR REVIEW

  It pains me to say that this was one of the worst dining experiences of my life. Prepared to spend upwards of $400 for a good boutique wine and an Ogden dinner, my wine-collector friend from New York and I visited One Market with a 7:30 reservation last Friday evening. After a half-hour wait in the very noisy TGIF bar, we were shown by the brusque host to possibly the worst table in the house, between 3 tables of raucous teenagers and adjacent to the enormous ice-dispensing sink where frenzied waitpersons and busboys jostled our chairs for space and spilled ice . There were many tables ready and vacant, and we asked to be moved, to no avail. After an endless halfhour, a waiter (not ours) took pity upon us and volunteered to move us into the dining area (`I'd have walked if anyone sat me at this table`, he confided kindly) . The only drawback to this table was a sodden teenager stretched out on the banquette, his feet intruding to our table, loudly lamenting to his pal that he'd gotten found out and bounced out of college. (Alas, he bounced to One Market) The `good` empty tables remained empty throughout our entire stay of 3 hours.

I'm afraid even the good, though exorbitantly overpriced, wine list and our one attentive waitperson does not make up for the shoddy service and atrocious clientele. The food, which one would have expected to be redeeming, was merely average. What a shame.
