The food is okay. It's pretty much the only restaurant to get food from in the area unless you want pizza everynight. The steak has been the best flavor wise by far. The salad bar is pretty good variety wise. Service is pretty good, fast, mostly correct, they don't write things down so we did get a couple sides different than what was requested. Anything with Alfredo sauce tastes like lightly seasoned white nacho cheese. I've attached a photo of their $18.00 Wings...
We had a great dining experience. I enjoyed the creamy Alfredo fettuccine, while my family had the black bean burger, sautéed veggies with rice pilaf, tomato pesto and wild mushroom ravioli, and a kids’ cheese pizza. Everything was flavorful and well-prepared. Though there was a 20-minute wait, the fresh salad bar that came with our entrees was a nice touch. A soup was offered, but we skipped it since it wasn’t vegetarian. The staff was friendly and the atmosphere was welcoming....
Dinner was average! We both ordered the Charbroiled Chicken Breast entrée. The chicken was basically a frozen pre-broiled chicken breast that was warmed up with choice of sauce. Meat was dry, rice pilaf was pasty and vegetables were zucchini and yellow squash. Can’t speak to other items on the menu. Service was good and friendly. Atmosphere was cozy.
