We did the theater menu and it was very good, albeit large portions. We had the roast chicken and salmon entrees. Everything was fresh, service excellent, friendly waiter. Nothing not to recommend.

Usually enjoy this restaurant. This time we were disappointed. The waiter was not too accommodating. The bread basket had 2 types of rolls for a total of 4 rolls for six people. We did get more of the wheat rolls but we had requested the pretzel rolls and none arrived. Finally at the end of the meal and six requests later some showed up. Three of us had the special fish dish. None of us would order it again. We ordered coffee at 6 pm. At 6:30 we cancelled the coffee because we were going to a show. I had called to check on whether they still had the discounted parking and was told no. That evening the manager said, yes they did have it. Got the same deal with Spot Hero. We hope it was just an off night.

We needed a nice lunch spot on Mother's Day before seeing a 3:00 pm show. This worked out great. We called ahead as we were running late for a 1:30 reservation and they were appreciative and responded very professionally. We sat down right a way and the service was attentive throughout. Food was very good as expected and portions were of a good size. They got us out in plenty of time without ever feeling rushed. Expectations met!

My two pancakes came burnt & the five slices of bananas on top were not enough. My son had waffles, which were tasteless , with frozen berries on top. Needless to say, we did not enjoy our brunch at all. Would not recommend.
