How would you paraphrase this?

Here's a Yelp Review:

"Maytinee C. wrote a review for Pranna

Never again. Horrible waitress, manager, and service overall!!! Came here for (un)happy hour with a group of five. Flagging our waitress down for a drink was nearly impossible. Yes, Pranna is a rather large space, but it was empty!!! Now I know why. This place sucks. The manager did not comply to the yelp check in for "one free drink" arguing that it was only one drink per table, really? Didn't even bother with the check in. Sadly for us, we didn't bother looking for a new place to drink and stuck around for a couple hours. A few drinks in and I'm buzzed. The bill comes, there it was ... 20% gratuity.

One star for the bus boys who picked up all the slack. "



If quoting or paraphrasing her, would you say:

When it came to "Pranna", Maytinne C. said:

Pranna "sucks", and their "rather large space" was "empty".
When asked if she would visit, she said "never again", and said they had a "horrible waitress", "manager" and "service overall.

If that's the entire paraphrase, it's lacking some key points. But first, 'visit' should be changed to either 'visit again' or 'return'.

Key points missed: kudos to the bus boys; one free drink applying only to the entire table; 20% gratuity applied to the bill.

OP, are you related to Telly?

I don't get the whole context here. Why paraphrase (and in such a hashed-up, quote-mark laden fashion) something that is well-written enough not to need paraphrasing? Just leave it alone and find something else to do.

Empty establishment, lacking service, single drink offer per table only, bill + 20% gratuity. Never again. Bus boy was only redeemning feature in otherwise flawlessly crap experience.

I'd go to Pranna and find out for myself. It sounds like the bus boys at least are worth checking out.

It got mostly - but not exclusively - good Google reviews. (Yelp users didn't like it nearly so well.) And their Sunday brunch, although pricey by my standards, includes unlimited drinks.

I don't get to New York often, but if you wanna go, let me know!

The only thing worth checking out are the bus boys. Stay home or go elsewhere(or wait til the guys get off work).

Maybe my post was poorly written.

I wanted to know if my paraphrasing was written correctly.
