“Have been here several times over the years. It opened with a great staff, great food and an awesome experience. Sadly it has gone down hill in the passed few years. On our last visit, which likely be our very last visit there!, the only thing they didn't screw up was 1 beer. My wife got a snowman drink...with a long dark hair right on top of the white whipped cream and white marshmallow. Got a diet dr pepper...that was flat as tap water. Seemingly nice server gent apologized again, said he'd get that corrected (thinking he'd get a glass of his own and taste it before be brought the 2nd glass of just as flat as the 1st. Ordered our food...2 burgers. Hers well done, mine medium rare. Food came out...fries on the plate were warm, not hot. Her burger was lile a burnt hockey puck...could bite into it but it took effort and you regretted it cause it was charcoal. My 'medium rare' has ZERO pink in it and wasn't much less burnt than hers was. The manager eventually got involved...we didn't pay for anything but we also left without an appetite despite an empty stomach.”
“Was my first time at this restaurant and location. Went on a Sunday. Our server was so sweet and so kind! The restaurant temp was a bit cooler than I'd like it to be. I ordered like a platter of some sort, the salmon dinner a personal pizza and the triple chocolate cookie with ice cream. I would suggest they bring out the food as it is done instead of waiting, since there was a group of seven of us, because some of our food came out cold. The salmon I would get blacked instead of oven roasted next time. The nacho dip was cold. The sliders, mozzarella sticks and fries were hot and good. The dessert was really good!”
“One of the very few local restaurants in the area that serve food late night, can say it is a go-to place for me because of that, but mainly because of the server Diane! She is a true gem to your establishment!! Always extremely helpful and pleasant and so much fun to have as my server when I am there! Sooooo glad to see she is back because she was truly missed! One of the main reasons that not only myself, but many other people return, Diane is a rockstar!”
