“I received the wrong order at 1st but they made it right and brought out my correct order. By then I had enough soup and salad to not want the meal. Packed up my food and when I went to eat it later it was much too salty for my liking, but my young daughters enjoyed their food and especially the birthday cake they gave me for my birthday 🎂 I wanted a strawberry cake, they were out so they improvised with strawberries from the bar area. My daughters loved the cake. Great customer service by the server and manager.“

“I ate at the bar for supper and had a seafood pasta dish with salad and bread sticks, of course. The bartender was my waitress and she disappeared (no one else was behind the bar or checking on me) for quite a while after my food was delivered. I would have liked to had a water and some more breadsticks with my pasta, but that didn't happen. Overall, the food was top-notch and the service was marginal.“
