   restaurant was very busy but our waiter Tim, was very attentive and we appreciated his service. The other waitress needs to be told to not wear perfume to work. Almost caused an asthma attack. Room was very busy with a large party of "Red Hat Ladies" so things were quite hectic and very noisy! But in fairness to all, the only complaint of any quality was the waitress who was wearing so much perfume. We could smell it every time she went past our table Please ask servers to not wear fragrance - it can be quite a difficult thing for customers to deal with.

   Excellent meal, great waitress, prompt service. It was very busy so it was a bit noisy but the meal and service more than made up for it.

   We were a group of 4, 3 of us ordered the burgers and each one was terrible, 2 were burnt (1 to the point of not being able to cut through it with a steak knife) and the third salad was very old dry and wilted. The cheese was just an unmelted square of the plastic cheese. The server was absolutely lovely and very apologetic and understanding (took all 3 of our burgers off the bill)Had breakfast here and it was great! Maybe just an off night for the chef.

   3 pf the 4 of us ordered the special prime rib dinner. Obviously many were doing the same thing as the restaurant was quite full. I ordered a 12 oz medium rare. When it came, it was well done. I ate it but was not that happy. One of the 4 of us did not receive the packet of vegetables thus we had to ask for it. We ordered a large caesar salad to be split between 2 of us. it came and the bowl was placed on top of my plate. I then had to use my salad fork to split the salad between the two of us. When we arrived there was no place evident to hang up coats. Overall, the food was fairly bland similar to what one would expect in a cafeteria. I would not recommend this restaurant. The quality has really deteriorated over the years. They can do much, much better. The facilities are all there. It will just take a bit of imagination and effort.

   Dear ED, Thank you for your feedback. I'm sorry to hear about your recent dining experience. I apologize for the overcooked prime rib and the missing vegetables. This is not our standard, and I will address these issues with our kitchen staff. Additionally, I regret that the Caesar salad was not served conveniently and that there was no visible place for your coats. We will review our service procedures to improve the overall dining experience. Your feedback about the food quality and the need for more effort is noted. We are committed to making the necessary improvements to ensure a memorable and enjoyable experience for our guests. We hope you will give us another chance to provide you with the high-quality dining experience you deserve. Warm regards Winstons Resto Bar

   Reservation #7463 table of three. Thanksgiving Dinner. Arrived ten-fifteen minutes early , told to wait in the lounge, guessing ilounge was closed as no server came to see if we would like a beverage while we waited. Wait staff came to take us in to the dining room, then changed their mind and told us to go wait again, third try we got in and seated. No longer free bread available, apparently too expensive, good thing we didn't want any at that time. Asked if we would like a happy hour beverage, we ordered the wine, waitress failed to mention that only the 6 oz was happy hour price, not the 9oz, we unknowingly ordered the 9oz. When one of us ordered a second glass, we were then told it was not the happy hour price. Not happy about this late information $17.75 per 9oz, ridiculous! We felt a bit rushed to order our food asap, only two wait staff for the room, and a guy wandering around with an iPad... seemed to be a lot of confusion going on...two wait staff were busy elsewhere ..... Two of us ordered Wings for an Appetizer $14.00ea and the Thanksgiving Dinner Special $42.99ea. Wings were good, could have been cooked more. We received the squash soup first, French onion soup came later, then our wings. Squash soup was barely warm. Main course portions were small for the price. Pumpkin Pie was okay. One of us had the French Onion soup $11.00 was hot good. And the Prawn Fettuccine $28.00, barley warm, tasteless cream sauce, Garlic toast, cold, $1.99 cuz, no bread. Took most of this order home. Asked for a takeout box and a desert menu, by the time they arrived two of us had finished our dessert, so no dessert ordered by the other.

    We really enjoyed celebrating our 44th anniversary at Winstons. We both had prime rib because that was the special. My only complaint is that the server should be told ahead of time that it is a special occasion.
