I went with a group of 8, we called in advance and were told a table was ready for us since it wasn't crowded. We left right away and were only 2 miles from the restaurant. When we got there they said our table was not ready and that it would be a couple of minute. We sat in the lounge area near the fireplace, 45 minutes went by, we asked hostess the status of the table and she told us it had been ready for some time, but she forgot to tell us. Once seated the horrors began. We ordered and waited, after 20 minutes the waitress came back to tell us the specials that were ordered were not longer available. So three people had to re-order. They started to bring salads and appetizers. When we told the waitress we didn't get one of the salads or a bowl of chili, she would not believe that she did not bring one of the salads because she had brought the dressing for the salad. She accused one of our party of eating the salad. The chili just got lost in the whole fiasco. The entrees arrived there were no baked potos, they had substituted rice with out any pre-warning. The meals were luke warm, one of the rib-eye steaks was not eatable because it was all grissle. The horror continues, the manager had to come and see why our waiteress had gotten all upset because of our complaining. When we told him of the goings on he responded by telling us our meal was free and that we should never come back again. We told him we would pay the bill, but wanted to come back because of how close he place is to us. We can always just sit in the lounge and eat finger food and hat some cocktails. He stormed off like a little girl having a hissy fit. All in all, a bad experience.
