“I’ve always loved the food. I’ve enjoyed Spikes for years. I visited a few weeks ago…? Not sure. This review is overdue, but I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention how great my experience was with Tyger. I was in a hurry, I feel like I needed special attention due to the very recent deaths of my mother and my mother-in-laws death this passed year. I didn’t say anything about that, but this young gentleman completely took care of me. He helped me order, he was kind, attentive, helpful, intuitive… I can’t say enough. He was most definitely the most accommodating and “go-to” young man I’ve encountered in recent years!! Again, he knew nothing of my circumstances. Stacey deserves a shout out as well. I’ve told all my friends how remarkable the service and quality of food you provide. Tyger is the only reason I wanted to write this review. Thank you!!“

“UPDATE: I have raised to 4 stars because the service has slowly improved over the last few months. Thank you for taking note of customer input and acting on it. As of now 11Aug22, solid service, good food. Taco Tuesday is great. I will continue my regular visits and hope to give 5 stars soon.Old: The last several times we have been to TJ's we have had no service. We are coming off the course hot and thirsty, we seat ourselves and no one comes by for 15-20 mins. No water, no welcome, nothing. If you can get served the food is solid. We have enjoyed breakfast here before and it was really good. When its 90 degrees and golfers are coming off a round on the course, offer them some water would ya? I HATE giving low reviews, but until this situation is fixed it will stay this way.Edit: The director of food and drink responded almost immediately so I raised my review by a star (From 2 to 3). I will go back sometime in the next couple weeks (Anonymously of course), if the problems have been resolved, I will edit this review further.“
