Default slow service too

We recently had relatives up to visit who wanted to take us out to dinner on a Thursday night. Since our party included four kids ages 6 years, 5 years, 2 years and 6 months old, I thought this would be good due to the family rating on this forum. I actually stopped by around lunch time and made the reservation in person stating that we would be in tow with the small ones. Our reservation was for 6 pm; we arrived a bit late at 6:15 but were quickly seated in the dining room. My husband thought (wisely) to ask if we could be seated outside which we were (good so far). We did get our drinks and two plates of nachos. However we did not receive our meals until almost 8:15!!! This was after my husband made two trips to track down the waitress, who apologized stating that they were very busy. Well, I had to use the girls room and saw 4 tables occupied in the dining room and less than half the tables occupied in the tavern area. Not really that busy in my opinion. Oh yeah, and around 7:15 I ordered the bread for the kids but that didn't even arrive until 8. Thank goodness the kids were super well behaved and that we were outside so that they could move around. The food, when it finally arrived, was good, but it was wayyy past bedtime by the time we were done. So if you have young kids, I would avoid this place as they don't seem to be attentive to their needs .
