   Everything was wonderful. My granddaughter’s Mac n cheese could have been hotter as well as my soup but truly we love coming here. It’s always very festive on Friday nights. My husband loves the beet selection.

   Our waitress/management failed to tell us a very large group was coming in to the same section where we were seated. We had just ordered a dessert and asked her to bring our checks when it came out; then she got busy with the "new group". Our dessert was not delivered for over 30 minutes even after one member of our group went looking for a manager. She did eventually find our waitress again and explained our discontent. We were informed "we stayed too long" but she would get our checks. Our dessert got delivered by another staff person but not our checks. We could hardly talk to each other but decided since we had a menu we would figure out our totals and just leave it on the table. We informed the hostess as we left that we had done that and walked out. It will be a long time before I take my group back there. Too many other choices to dine.

   Reservation for 8 so got a pretty big booth, NICE!! We don't like restaurant chairs due to back injuries, so comfort was great. The wait staff was great too! The drinks, appetizers and main meals were all really good. I definitely recommend this restaurant.

   Food was great. Always love going there. Waited 20 minutes for our cocktails that never came. I finally went to the bar where the drinks were sitting. Our server was not on his game.

   Seating was an issue at first. Hostess was overwhelmed and didn’t appear to be fully trained.
