Closed for Thanksgiving Day

My dining experience with you was on August 1st, 2008. My husband and I have been married for 3 years now, he is in the Oregon Air National Guard and on any given moment you can be called to go have to do something well on our first wedding anniversary that happened. As we were getting ready to go celebrate, what I think is the most important, our first anniversary together he got a phone call and had to leave for the next 3 days doing search and recovery in Astoria. Several Pilots were doing training exercises and one of them hit the water and died instantly. So lone and behold I was sitting there all alone on my anniversary as the next year rolls around and again my husband was not able to spend it with me because he was overseas for 3months, we decided that we would still celebrate our second anniversary but we were just going to do it one month late. We thought about all these different restaurants that we'd like to go to but I had been dreaming of coming to your restaurant so we decided to get a hotel room downtown and come enjoy an amazing meal at the Melting Pot. When I called to make reservations the person asked me if we were coming for any particular reason and I explained that we are doing a late 1st and 2nd wedding anniversary since we didn’t get to enjoy them together. I just thought that they were curious I didn’t think anything else of it. When we got to the restaurant they sat us in a private corner and on our table was a card from your restaurant wishing us a very happy 1st and 2ndAnniversary. That was the nicest thing I have ever heard of a restaurant doing for their customers. As we were enjoying the best meal I think I have ever had,we also had the most superior customer service I have ever experienced. Our server was so great, he was always there making sure everything was good. At the end of the night we asked the waiter if there was anything fun to do in that area, he and a group of waiters and the manager thought and came over to tell us things that we could do. I never knew a whole restaurant would care so much about 2 customers. We enjoyed every minute of our 1st/2nd Anniversary together a month late thanks your restaurant.
