Excruciatingly long waits on everything from drinks to food. Even when the restaurant cleared out later in the evening it took over 20 minutes for a dessert to arrive While the food is above average, there is clearly something wrong with the service operations
February 2026
It wasn't busy yet our servers weren't attentive at all. It was a shame as we had a great experience before. The food was okay but the lack of attention was disappointing. We had to call them over to take our order as well as drinks and then again in order to pay. Both times sat looking around for their attention but they were busy chatting.
January 2026
Not sure why when we make a reservation it asks if it’s a special occasion? It was our 35th. Went to use the washroom and found the upstairs to be cozier atmosphere, that would have been nice, food might have stayed warmer also. Might go back to try the Calzone with a beer.
