Slow service. But probably because on a Thursday night, there was only 1 server for the big room. They need to get rid of that small drop leaf table in the corner. People can't comfortably sit there. I also saw a previous review about being stuck at that table. There were other tables open. And just because you order a cup of soup for an entree, wait staff shouldn't decide you need a bowl.

Disappointing. We wanted to check this out , even though reviews weren't great, because it looked like a cool building. I really wanted to like it, but it just fell short. The decor is super cool. Lots of antiques. Cool well room that is a private table with a view down into the lit cistern. Bar area is super cool and cigar lounge upstairs. There was a single table when we arrived and they were almost done. We sat at what had to be the most awkward table I. The place. If I were seating people, it would be the absolute last table I sat folks it would be the LAST table I sat folks at. It was a drop leaf, and either you had to sit with one leg on either side if you wanted to sit directly at the table. Otherwise, you had to sit angled to the table to keep both legs on one side of the table leg. They were out of the watermelon goat cheese sliders we were dying to try and there didn't seem to be a lot of gluten-free options. Nothing was noted as gluten-free on the menu. Intriguingly enough, they had several pasta dishes listed as keto. I'm not really sure how that would work, pasta and all, but didn't ask as it was strictly curiosity. We got the tomato basil soup as a starter. It was tepid. Great flavor, but barely warm. We ended up ordering the fish and chips to share. Didn't want leftovers as our room didn't have a fridge. Fish and chips were good, but not amazing. Also got salad and the loaded tater tots. I know not terribly healthy, but seemed like the best choice to avoid leftovers. Tater tots were disappointing. We've had loaded tots other places and these were far from loaded and a small serving. I could see this place being fabulous, but execution fell short. There was the manager on site, owner and at least 3 other staff. For price, service and quality it just was not worth it and we are happy to pay for good food and service!

We waited 30 minutes for water, 1 hour for food even though we ordered appetizers. They did not seem busy at all so I’m not sure why it took so long. When we finally got our food it was cold and was not the best quality for the price… Would not recommend.

Normally we love this place, last night was the exception. The service was some of the worst I've ever had. Almost 3 hrs for dinner! It would take 30-45 mins to get a drink, and about that long before we got the first. The server came back several times, 30 mins after we ordered to tell us something wasn't available, she was soo bad she even poured tea in my water. The couple that came with us will never go back, and I doubt we will after that. I wouldn't recommend going until they get new management or at least skilled servers

The wait for food was awful! 30-40 minute wait after ordering. There were a few people in here but had already ordered. I do not recommend this place.
