The restaurant was not overly busy when we arrived. Our server took our drink and food orders then disappeared- maybe for other tables in another section?. We had to ask another server for salad bar plates, another filled our water and another cleared the plates. They need to put plates back on the salad bar to avoid delays. The food was tasty as always., can't go wrong ordering anything on the menu. Kids cheeseburger needs a smaller bun though - more bun than meat.

3 people in our party. Had to ask several times for another setting. Only 2 settings and the server couldn’t figure out we needed another service. Brings us plate but no silverware. Doesn’t bring any bread. Service is very slow!!! Talked to the manager and her response, I’m surprised as she’s usually one of our best. No I’m sorry or anything.

Our server Andy made the evening for our group! We reserved a table for 5 and had 3 friends stop by unexpectedly. He graciously found chairs and made everyone feel welcome. The food was excellent, and Andy covered admirably for the kitchen’s issues with delivery timing. Bravo, Andy!

Service was outstanding. Food was excellent. Ambiance was exceptional. We were with friends whom we had not seen in some time. We did not feel crowded in with other diners, but felt we were in our own little private space and could carry on our conversation without worrying about disturbing anyone else. We had a memorable dining experience.
