Everything was fine. With the ONLY exception of being asked to leave by a hostess/manager because they needed the table immediately after paying the bill. Mind you my party was finishing a coffee that was just poured. Yes it was a Saturday at the lunch hour. So I get the need to flip the table. But literally it was we paid the bill, coffee had been poured just as we are paying and then asked to leave. Just left a bad taste to the experiences. If this location is now doing time service that should be know. (Unless of course I completely missed this while making the reservation).

We enjoyed the deviled eggs royale, the harvest salad, meatloaf, and dark chocolate cream pie; all delicious! One dessert was easily enough for two people. :-)

I’ve always loved the food and atmosphere here. This time, the food was “meh”. I ordered the chicken and waffles. Chicken was crispy and tasty but the waffle was super disappointing - soggy and melted into mush. Drink and pop tarts were good, as usual. At minute 61, (I checked my watch) we were explicitly asked to vacate the table, which was unpleasant. We were about to stand up and leave, after my guest had returned from the restroom, but were actively dismissed instead. I am very sensitive to the need to turn over tables during busy times, but we had not overstayed IMO. (Not had we been rude, loud, demanding, etc. No reason for the staff to wish us gone.) It felt a little like they should just install eviction chairs that pop at minute 61! It left us feeling unwelcome and unappreciated, in a neighborhood with tons of more welcoming meal options. We won't be going back.
