    The kitchen was backed up so it took over an hour to get our food from the time we ordered. They start was very friendly and our waitress was awesome, she kept us updated and they ended up giving us free appetizers, dessert, and kids meals since it was such a long wait.

    Besides the being on the water m, the entire experience was bad. We have been Union customers for many many years, but will not be returning based on this experience. We had a reservation for a party of 6 for our daughter and her grandparents. The wait staff was absent nearly the whole meal. Our drinks of water and tea were never refilled until I found someone to ask to help us. The quality of the food has gone down. Mainly the waiter was not around at all. It was awful.

    We tried a couple of brunch meals on their menu, and they were very good. I just finished the hot mess plate as a brunch option. The biscuits, gravy, sausage, and potatoes were terrific.

    Restaurant was bone chilling cold. Food was disappointing. Menu needs a whole revamp to be honest.

    We used to love coming here for anniversaries. For a higher end restaurant you do not expect to be served by a robot. The robots were a big distraction. That is something you would expect from a fast food restaurant. The servers were all just standing in the back talking the whole time. The food was not seasoned at all. My husband asked for a medium steak and received a well done. Our server had no idea about the different meats and she said she had been there for a year. It’s unfortunate that the food and service has gone so downhill. I will not be coming again.

    I was in the area and made a reservations and added that it was a birthday brunch. The décor was beautiful and the dining space was very nice. The hostess were accommodating and we didn't have to wait. They grabbed a red ribbon for the table and card, which indicated that it was someone's birthday. The card was signed by the staff.....awesome idea! Our server Enrique was delightful and had the best service. The food was a lot but so good. The drink choices were also great. And the mobile robots were a nice touch in delivery food to the tables and they sung 'Happy Birthday'. I really enjoyed the whole experience and I loved how they celebrated their guests special day.
