    I understand the policy about only being able to stay at your table for about 90 min but the last 20 minutes we felt we were being rushed out the door. Kind of soured the night, especially after spending $300.00 for 2 people.

    I had an under cooked pork chop in Parts - over all the flavor was good but it was barely warm. The crab dip and potatoes were delicious
