we tried the grilled and breaded tenderloins. these were really good tenderloins the grilled was meaty had a little bit of char and most importantly didn't taste like beef. somebody cleaned the grill off first. five star all the way. the breaded was quite uneven tasted a bit like chicken and was five star when the pork to breading ratio is right but about half the sandwich was too thin and mostly tasted of breading. the sides we're really good. usually we get fries and onion rings but this time we went with the fresh fruit, the coleslaw and the mac and cheese. all were excellent. the only downside is the serving size was tiny maybe a half a cup each. unfortunately they're still putting everything in styrofoam. we took our food to the Jackson Morrow Park nearby and found a picnic table for a lovely evening meal.
We recently had a private dining experience for 26 people for birthday party, including several kids. I anticipated it being chaotic but it was not at all. They had our tables set up nicely so we could all mingle, and even had a divider wall to make the experience a little more private. We had multiple servers assigned to us, which made things run so smoothly. They were polite and friendly, and the food was excellent. Everyone left happy and full.
Very nice, our favorite place to eat. We were a party of six. Our server was very nice he brought out our drinks, appetizers, etc. A woman who looked like an assistant manager approached our server, who was in the process of giving us our food, she came alongside our table, opened the serving tray / stand and told our server to use it before you drop the tray of food. He was doing just fine, She was not very nice to him. We all just looked at each other and at our server, who said nothing. She was rude to him, in front of everyone. He had to stop serving us and move the tray she placed in his path out of his way, so he didn't trip over it. He did all this while holding our tray of food with the other hand. I believe the nicer thing to do would have been to ask our server if he would like some help instead of belittling, embarrassing him, and making him look like this was his first night. He did an awesome job. Keep up the good work. I appreciate your hard work and dedication. Thank you, 😊 Tina Hopkins
Prime Rib was absolutely atrocious for the price (or literally any price). We had a delicious bison burger as well (also pricey af), but the prime rib was enough to make sure we never return. Fantastic service though. A+ front of house.
We were in town for a graduation. Our family went here for dinner. They were very accommodating for a larger party. Our waiter was amazing! He made the whole experience awesome. He was on top of our drinks and our orders. He held conversations and had a great personality. The food was good. We had steaks and pastas and burgers. We were pleased and will be back whenever we are back in town for another family event.
This is a nice place for a for a dinner with friends. Wifie and I enjoyed the experience.. the service was spot on. The food was good and the conversation was really good. I had the chicken Cordon Bleu with sweet potato fries which was really yummy. Wifie had the stir fry which she really enjoyed. We both had salads as one of our sides. This place is worth a visit again.
Food is definitely not great, the tenderloin is pretty good. The pasta was mushy, the shrimp were chewy, and the sausage was flavorless. The Manhattan was not good at all. It was our first time eating here, and will be our last.
We had a party of 15. Overall very good experience. Only problem was that one of group didn't get their food. Was told they forgot to put in their order. They did receive their order after about 15 mins of everyone else had started eating.
