I decided to come here for my mother's day dinner. I have been here twice before and had a good experience, but after last night I had to write a review. After being seated around 7p, we were not spoken to until a little after 7:30p and that's only because I stopped the waiter. When I let the waiter know that we've haven't ordered yet, she had an attitude like we were bothering her and said we have wait. Mind you, the restaurant was not packed at at this time. We waited and finally at 7:40 we placed our order. The entrees came out before the appetizers, and when we let her know she took the food back we waited again, and then was served our appetizers that were COLD. After being there for an hour before receiving food or any drinks (not even a water). Then the food came out which was also COLD. Anytime we mentioned anything to the waiter, she was very dismissive and seemed like we were bothering her. She then decided to give herself a 18% tip that was added to our bill. It was only 2 adults and a child. I do believe in tipping but I do not believe in tipping 18% when it is NOT deserved. She claimed it was added b/c it was Mother's Day, but she knew she did not deserve that tip after neglecting our table the entire time. This was a horrible experience for my Mother's Day dinner. I loved this place but the quality of service has definitely declined. I hope they do better.

Service was excellent. I really like the server Vane who is always very helpful and attentive. She is one of main reasons for me regularly patronizing this establishment.

Buyer beware. This place will literally steal your money. I put an Uber eats pick up order in for someone else to pick up. The person arrived with the name and the receipt and was forced by the person at the front desk to pay for the order again.Explain to me where Uber eats allows cash pick up for this place to confuse the idea that pick up means just that, pick up. I don’t like an establishment that steals. I can’t imagine this is their first Uber eats order so it leaves me to believe that this was intentional.I mean really where does Uber eats allow cash pickup for you to force someone to pay for an Uber eats pick up when proof of order was provided and they have proof of order in hand. Please, I’d love to hear a possible explanation.

the place was a good vibe because of the music on friday but the customer service is really bad . & they just expect to get a tip from it, my server was upset because i asked for my change back & as a customer that should automatically be brought back you don’t just decide to keep they amount left over. there was also another server with a short haircut that was very rude when i called her to the table to ask if she could get my server so i can order my food after waiting long to even be greeted to put in drink orders.

I’m highly disappointed and not sure why they have 4.5 stars which is what made me go.I got the braised short rip appetizer and I did eat some but it here was no effort for presentation and it tasted microwaved . It wasn’t tender it was tough, the mashed potatoes are not made from real potatoes and were pretty bland.I ordered the TCB House salad , it came out with only croutons onions and cheese. It says on the menu it has avocado and tomato so I asked to have avocado put on it since that was what was advertised. They tossed it in there and returned the plate. The salad was fine.I ordered the oysters Rockefeller and honestly the flavor really isn’t bad. It just sucks that they are frozen and popped into the oven and not made from fresh oyster.Overall the food was very lackluster and I regret wasting my time and paying for it. I didn’t complain I just paid but I dont think I would be back until they get a new chef and ingredients.The sprite was good !! My server said she didn’t charge me for the second sprite so I’m assuming there aren’t free refills on soda ? Who knows I won’t be back to find out.

Maybe I came on an off day, but we were not impressed with the food at all. The garlic butter seafood boil looked and tasted odd, with the seafood itself being flavorless. We ordered scallops as an appetizer and received 5 1/2 scallops. If the order comes with 6 pieces, they should at least be full pieces.Aside from the from, the service was great and the atmosphere was very pleasant.
