Default Pine Cone Cafe

We took the whole clan to the Pine Cone in Melvin Village last Sat. We phoned ahead to see how long a wait there would be, and were told we'd be fine. We were seated right away, ordered, and waited, and waited, and waited some more...this with 2 young children. There were too many takeout orders for pizza, etc, and those seated had to be prepared to sit. Meals were so-so...prime rib was tough, my son's chicken was cold, and my wrap was mediocre. The kids loved their pizza. All said, I wish we had stayed home, grilled some dogs and burgers, and enjoyed ourselves on the screened porch. A neighbor of ours complained about a similar experience. Maybe they are spread too thin with 3 restaurants.
P.S. Our waitress ended up tending bar. which didn't help our service. We stood up as though we were leaving before the hostess came with our check!!!
