Food was great but it was buffet style and the staff could not keep up with the food so there was some items that where not out on the buffet table and you needed to wait for the food to be refilled. Staff was friendly but seemed to be over whelmed by how many people they had attending.

We went for Thanksgiving as a family of 9 and had perfect seating right in front of the buffet. After being told that we were going to be greeted by our server we were not greeted by our server for another 15-20 minutes and in that time already eaten our first plate and did not have a beverage. We asked the manager if someone could come over and he said yes and we still waited. Eventually we got our drinks ( including water). Then we ready to leave and we did not see our server, we asked another server and they said yes we can get the check and they did not bring it over, then we told the manager and after 20 minutes of waiting for the server to come back we got the bill and paid online. The food was delicious however the service was not good, as we saw our server two times in the two hours that we were there.

Not a good experience. Had a reservation. No host when we got there. Had to find an employee to ask what to do. Ended up sitting at the bar. Waited 10 minutes before we were acknowledged and given menus. Other people started coming in and we had to ask if we could order a drink and the waitress was rude and clearly annoyed by our presence. Waited 5 more minutes then walked out. Won’t be back

The 4 of us all had different meals all were very good. The menu is on the small side with no specials when we were there. The inside was nice and stylish. The outside was old and worn looking. There was quality live music. The hours seem to be short for a restaurant and bar (9:30). In all we would go back.

Went to brunch on a Sunday. The restaurant was very slow, so it made the very slow service that much more annoying. The food took an incredibly long time to come, and when it did, it was COLD. The eggs, potatoes and English muffins… everything. My friend sent hers back and they cooked a new meal for her. The two friends that ordered bagels and smoked salmon waited twice as long for their food and it didn’t need to be cooked!!! No apology, nothing… I would never recommend this restaurant to anyone

Do not eat here! Bad service Bad food! Reservation for 10. a musty odor greeted us. “K” greeted us and took our drink order. the tray of drinks went down my back. All “K” could say was “that has never happened to me before” she went straight to cleaning the beer off the floor,instead of helping her customer or even giving me an “I’m sorry”.My husband ordered the chicken parm. it was hot and tasted pretty good UNTIL he hit the spoiled chicken! I am very disappointed in the way these people treat their patrons. I am disgusted that they would serve spoiled chicken! And in the end, there was no live music. PLUS my husband ended up being sick all of last night and this morning. I DO NOT recommend this restaurant. And if “K” reads this - shame on you for not getting me a towel or checking on me.
