    I came here with my wife and we were seated and then we were having a discussion and it seems like the waitress couldn't wait that she had to come and interrupt us I said it's going to be a couple more minutes she came right back and interrupted me again in the middle of a conversation for absolutely no reason best restaurant is $60 per person it needs to be different than this always in a hurry and the waitresses aren't trained I can't believe that it's normal to just go up and interrupt another person's conversation especially when they are customers we literally got up and left we went to a different restaurant where we can have a talk without being bothered. we were ready to spend $120 there so why do we have to be rushed and why do they have to be so rude?

    We came here for a late dinner after a really, really crappy day. The items we had wanted, they had run out of. The manager came over, apologized and offered to fix the problem. It was very appreciated. I’ve honestly never had a manager come over right away to help make our experience there still very enjoyable. Thank you! It was very much appreciate. The server was also great. We appreciate the hospitality and will for sure be returning.

    Last night was rough, I do understand being busy and having lots of tables, but our service last night was terrible. I do want to say that the Red Haired Supervisor (I’m so sorry I forgot your name, Thank you for being so kind to us and understanding) did try and make the most of the situation for us and was very understanding. Thank you for that. As for our server, I didn’t appreciate the way we were told we couldn’t replace a drink that was not up to standard for a restaurant. I also didn’t appreciate how we were corrected on Lemon Juice, Okay you might not have it (Really? What bar doesn’t have lemon juice?) When we asked for a drink made with a different base we were told that doesn’t exist and also were made to feel a little stupid for even asking the question. I appreciate our bills being halved but man it sucks that it even has to be like that in the first place. Our server was still polite in the end but may need some lessons on customer service. On another note, When we arrived I talked to the host about our reservation which he told me didn’t exist, even though i literally called an hour before to let them know what would be going on with our Edible Arrangement and party. When he did figure it out he played it off as a joke and barely even apologized, I planned this party a month ago and placed the reservation on Wednesday September 9th, aswell as calling atleast 3 times beforehand to clarify important details. On top of that, while my whole table is waiting for drinks I see the hostess hitting the Griddy and laughing while i’ve been seated waiting for a Water for around 40 minutes. I’m not the typical person to want to write a review like this so I’m really bummed to even be typing this out but yeah, Last night was unacceptable and really sucked, we made memories for the wrong reasons.

    Honestly, this was a very disappointing experience. We ordered chicken wings, but they were extremely bland and had almost no flavor. Before that, we asked for some sauce, and a young girl very disrespectfully threw the sauce into the garbage right in front of us. We understand that employees can be tired after a long day of work, and we respect how hard they work. However, being tired is not an excuse for treating customers disrespectfully. There are much better ways to communicate with customers. Very disappointing service, and unfortunately, I would not recommend this place.

    Tonight you ruined my 21 year old daughters birthday, your happy reviews with the generic answers are all fabricated on here . Ordered drinks 30 minutes later drinks arrived and had sat so long the frozen parts had separated. Food was 45 minutes and had obviously been ready quickly and then sat until it became cold ,deep fried pickles limp ,cornbread was entertaining the kids were bouncing it off the table like a hockey puck . Manager gave 50% off , but 50 % off a disaster is insulting anyway you look at it . Photos and vids to follow after they try to make a better birthday elsewhere tonight . Very sad and disappointing experience, I can’t believe you’d screw up a birthday party with such shoddy service.
