    I brought some out of town friends here...I hadn't been here in a while, but thought it would be great for the group. Honestly...I should have reconsidered. The service was mediocre at best. Our cocktails were gross, took forever to get them...arrived after the appetizers even. After tasting them, we tried to send back the dirty martinis to have the bartender remake them because they were so filthy dirty, like pure olive juice with a splash of vodka...the server rudely and confused said "well you said you wanted dirty," and reluctantly took them back. Once she took them back, the drinks took a good 15 minutes to get...well after our food had arrived. And spoiler alert, just as gross. My friend's crab dip was cold as was the heap of stale and cold flatbread that accompanied it. The biscuits were cold, candidly, like they had been refrigerated and popped in an air fryer for 30 seconds to warm up. The louie salad, at practically $30 with crab and shrimp had at best 1 ounce total of protein. A friend's market salad was so doused in dressing she couldn't enjoy it. Another's flatbread pizza was covered in tomatoes that were so acidic that my friend barely ate it...she said it seemed as if the tomatoes were spoiled. It seemed as if the staff was completely overwhelmed and we didn't have the time to complain further and wait for more food because we had somewhere to be after dinner. Overall, completely disappointed.

    Made the mistake of going for a late brunch on Veterans Day two hours before the brunch buffet closed. Lots of old food that had been sitting there and not rotated out. The food was good but would have been much better fresh. Also the staff was just watching us pick from the scraps. Not the best experience. Not worth the money if you ask me.

    The weekend brunch buffet is an excellent value and we’ve gone there several times. The food today was not kept as hot or fresh as we’ve experienced before. The food itself was good, but it was cold or lukewarm.

    Sunday brunch was not worth the $34. About 1/3 of the dishes on the buffet were missing at a given time and with the placement of the food and amount of people in the restaurant a sneeze guard / shield should be used to cover the food. Definitely not recommended for anyone with food restrictions.
