    Not a clean table to be found. The busses saw us waiting and decided to take the tub of dirty dishes to the back instead of wiping a table for us. It wasn't busy. The food for three of us came out very slowly, with long waits between orders. Hard to have lunch together when one is almost finished before the other gets their food. The food was quite good, but I won't be back if the service doesn't improve. $26.00 for lunch that doesn't include table service is a lot. It should be prompt and have a clean dining area.
