    It was a most pleasant experience. The food was good and our server Blake was great. I don’t usually go to this location, but I will from now on.

    Our food was great! We all five had ale steaks! We were seated at 11:45 and they had already run out of glassware which meant we had to drink out of plastic cups. We had to ask for bread which we’ve never had to do before. All in all, everything was excellent as far as food and service.

    We had a very nee waiter that was slow to the table. Our spinach dip app took 20 min to come out, pretty sure the new waiter forgot about it. The waiter did not collect the used dishes during the meal. Food was just Ok. Nothing special and was pretty good tasting.

    Calhouns never fails to deliver great food, good service, and a clean restaurant. Order the cheddar cheese salad dressing! It's not on the menu, but locals know about it and it's the best!

    Customers for years, this is our 3rd consecutive bad visit and likely our last. Only five tables total with customers at 7:45 on Saturday yet not seated till 8:00 reservation . Then did not see anyone for over 10 minutes. 10 more minutes for iced tea which stayed empty most meal. (Could not find anyone to ask) Soup/chili came out cold and no spoon. Next time we saw the server I told her about the soup and she replied ok and eventually brought me a spoon. Not hot soup. The salad ordered and confirmed with No Tomatoes was literally covered with juicy chopped tomatoes. When we told the server she asked can you just pick them out? We said there are too many and very juicy so flavor would be on everything. She said oh, are you allergic to them? 10 more minutes got a new salad. Bread was cold and hard. Finally got up from table and got the tea pitcher from serving station myself. Server never even noticed it on the table when she finally came with the check. To top off the evening a stop at the restroom and it was so horrendous I came out and my wife said hers was worse and we stopped at the gas station which was better. Too bad because it seems the food could have been good but a lack of caring about quality, service and cleanliness has definitely taken over.

    Busy Christmas Eve - we had made reservations in advance and were seated immediately. Our server was really busy but still very attentive and congenial. The food was delicious - congrats to kitchen, wait staff and management for enhancing our family time. Your presence at work on Christmas Eve was much appreciated and we do not take that for granted.
