We checked this place out , made reservations some old lady host messed up the seating for one and argued with a young host making a scene , then the chicken came out after waiting 2 hrs for food then the chicken was hard and dry you couldn’t put a fork in it and my one of my sister was dry and sweet potato casserole was not cooked and runny . Very small selection of choices , Wine selection for seeet wine the host tried putting sweetener to the wine NOT .. I see why they only open on certain days . Never going back there again and it was a Birthday Celebration … Eddie whom ever your establishment sucks

It's a shame we didn't end up eating here, so this isn't about the food. Menu looked yummy. Manager was unpleasant and unwelcoming. You would think with all the competition, you would try to be friendly. Then, there is no iced tea or tea bags. What? We left. Unprofessional.

Went here for retirement seminar. Very informative. We had the filet mignon with mashed potatoes which were nicely seasoned and some broccoli that was fantastically cooked.

My boyfriend and I went to the Easter Brunch Buffet and it was fabulous! The Shrimp was my favorite along with the Lamb and Garlic mashed potatoes. They also have really amazing coffee, we had a seat by the windows and our waiter Donny was top notch. We can't wait to come back for other occasions, this is our new favorite restaurant.Dietary restrictions: The regular menu has tons of gluten free options.

My family and I were recently here for their Easter Buffet. This was my first time here, and it was amazing! I highly recommend dining here, because the food and service were impeccable. The buffet had a plethora of options, anything you could think of, it was there. The lamb was so delicious, I think it’s the best I have ever had. We will be back! Thank you.

We have dined here several times. A few years ago, it was excellent. The last couple of times, both the food and service have been mediocre at best. This time? Ohhhhhhh, this time. My fiancé and I came for dinner on Sunday, 3/17/24.When we pulled into the parking lot we thought it was quite strange that the parking lot was almost empty. We were greeted and seated promptly upon arrival. We were given water fairly quickly. After that, everything went completely south (sorry Southerners, lol).Some quick points:*Our server, Sydney, took about ten minutes to greet us. Not sure why, since he had only three tables.*I requested a straw at least four times. He kept saying he "forgot".*It took about fifteen minutes after that for Sydney to take our drink and food orders.*It took a long time in between our appetizer and main course arriving. Our server never checked on us.When the food arrived...my entire plate and food were ICE cold.Since Sydney kept hiding in the bar area, we had to request assistance from other staff. They retrieved him from his hiding place, and he STILL took about ten minutes to come ask what was wrong. He was too busy fawning over the two other tables he had. No, seriously, I mean he brought HOT WET TOWELS to the table next to us and topped off another table's water first. Meanwhile, I had nothing to eat and my fiancé felt bad about eating his food which was becoming colder by the minute.The manager. Oh. The manager. JOSEPH CROUSE. He was not professional, had a terrible attitude in general, and kept repeating his name - like he was a celebrity and it made any kind of difference. When I was not willing to be okay with how we were being treated, he stomped off to get my re-done food. At no point was I offered soup, a salad, fresh bread, ANYTHING during the time it took them to recook my order. At that point, I was no longer hungry. Just upset and disappointed. We had to literally beg both the server and the manager for to-go containers and the check. Multiple times. Only because other diners were aware of how we were being treated did the manager offer to comp my awful food. Gee, thanks. The server never apologized, only continued to hide in the bar area. I think I wouldn't have been so...unhappy if I didn't see how other customers were treated. Completely the opposite of how we were.

The staff is extremely rude and told me I could not be in there with what attire I had on. I was not going to eat there I was picking up an order to take to someone. I thought about eating at this place but now I change my mind because they were extremely rude to me when I was simply just there to pick up an order for someone. I thought this place would be a good place to eat but not after they went after me about what I was wearing when I was simply just there to deliver food from them to someone.

I have dined here several times, and it actually gets better. The menu selections are just the right size, with a good selection of seafood and steaks. The calamari appetizer was the best I've had, the oysters were fresh and flavorful, and the ahi tuna steak was on point. Our server was very helpful, with attentive but subtle service. Portions were generous. We were never rushed and we all had a very enjoyable evening.

Nice receptionist and valet. They are welcoming and friendly. The ambience is nice and the restaurant is clean. The reason for the low rating is because the waiter was horrible and the food was subpar. Our waiter wasn’t attentive or even present. After taking our order, we didn’t see him again until he brought us our check. He never topped off our waters, never checked in with us to see if we needed anything, nada. He was totally ghost during our dining experience even after we asked one of the other waiters to get him for us. as for the food, we ordered steaks and not only were they not cooked properly, they were much smaller in size than what was stated on the menu. The potatoes we ordered came AFTER we finished our dessert. The waiter randomly brought them to our table and when we asked why they weren’t brought out with our entrées, as we were now done eating and ready to leave, he said they take a long time to cook. we suspect he forgot to put them in with our order.

All in we ended up with a decent experience. Buy not what we would consider great. It is a comfortable place and food was fine. Service felt disjointed, and our server tended to forget simple things like silverware and non alcoholic beverages.
