    We arrived 15 min early for our reservation, checked in and waited at the bar. We were continuously ignored at the bar, and kept being told that “Dean would be right with us”. Dean only waited on the regulars sat beside us. As tipped servers ourselves, we were extremely patient and understood the delay due to the big crowd. However, after being ignored for 15 minutes straight, we gave up and tried to find the hostess to tell her we were leaving. We waited another 10 minutes at the crowded hostess stand, but she never showed up. Have been here before and usually have had decent service with good food. This was a very disappointing experience.

    The restaurant was very busy, but we had a reservation so we were seated right away. We received our drinks quickly, but then the waitress did not come back to take our order for another 30 minutes. A table that was seated 15 minutes after us was waited on first. The waitress was friendly, but I think she was little too busy to handle all the tables. We would all definitely go back again, but I think they may need more wait staff to handle such a crowd.

    I really like Pappy's Place for may reasons. First I always enjoy the salad bar. I especially enjoyed the Greek lemon soup, as did the others in our party of 6. The menu was revised. Everyone found something that they liked to order. I like how the resturant remodel turned out. The resturant has a peaceful feeling. I ordered the Rib Special. I was pleasantly surprised at the large serving of rub. I think the waitress was new. She was very cheerful and pleasant.
