  • 3/5 Reynaldo A. 5 months ago on Google
    I booked 2 days in advance for 5:30 PM dinner. We arrived around 5:15 PM and checked in. I was told that I will be called asap. There were people walking in and getting listed. We finally got seated around 6:20. I recommend that you review your process for seating those who took the initiative to book vice walking in. It seems that there is no advantage in booking in advance. Other than that the food was great.

    I had higher hopes for this place, but it did not meet my expectations. I don't know how fresh food does not come out hot. I have an issue with cold food that is not supposed to be cold. Go and try it for yourself. I don't think I would go back.

    Went on Sunday around 5 pm, very open seating, very well staffed, got seated right away, waitress was super nice, attentive, and quick! Restaurant was very clean, had a few TV's in the restaurant area to watch the football game, had staff constantly in motion cleaning, refilling, and tending to people and orders. Food came up pretty quickly, Meatloaf with mashed potatoes and a side of fruit (good flavor, nice gravy in plenty, super fluffy potatoes, fresh & crisp fruit) and the Jambalaya (good portions of sliced chicken, shrimp, sausage, and peppers; with options of rice or noodles, also nicely seasoned-not really spicy but good flavor!).

    First time with my family. We loved the food, it was quick and the service was really nice. I totally recommend the desserts, they were really yummy. Plenty of parking too. Drinks were nice too.

    So much for the stress-free Thanksgiving we wanted. They had a limited menu and still couldn't function.This place clearly overbooked, under staffed and blamed their customers for the delay in seating. We were seated after 2:00 for a 1:00 reservation. Our server was very sweet and tried her best. Our salad course was staggered. We were a party of 11. 2 people got their salad while the rest waited 30 minutes for theirs by around 3pm. Our main course was served around 4pm and reasonably tasty. The pumpkin pie was still frozen and we waited forever for that, too. We watched many people complain and others leave. As we left, their lobby area was full of people waiting impatiently. This was a disastrous experience. Poorly managed and staffed. Such a disappointment. We thought we were going to enjoy a lunch time Thanksgiving and didn't leave until dark.

    Brought my family here for a quick lunch. We were greeted as soon as we walked through the door, and was seated immediately. The food is fairly priced for the quality you are getting. We ordered a Farmhouse Burger with Fries, Tri Tip Dip, Kid's pork BBQ ribs and kid's cheeseburger. The Farmhouse burger was cooked at a perfect Med and my tri tip dip was juicy. The au jus was the perfect balance of savory and salty. Both kids meals come with fries and a choice of an extra side, the boys loved the Mac n cheese. Our server Jennifer was attentive and on top of her craft and section. We will most definitely be back to this location. 5 Stars across the board 🌟 🌟🌟🌟🌟

    I ordered a simple soup for my grandma and I to share. It’s rainy out, cold and just what we needed while out running errands. I walked in during a quiet lunch time, the space is huge and everyone seated was spread out. I was a server for yearrrrs so I know you either fall behind running around, or have skilled staff that can handle the time management needed to support everyone in a timely manner. It was exactly that. Excellent service. Two people who saw me walk in and look around got up to ask if I had been helped. Managers I would assume, and another staff member wearing an apron also came out to ask. I have literally never been so pleasantly surprised by the amount of care of quality service. This was just a take out order, I’ve never sat inside, but I gladly will soon! Thanks for being attentive everyone!!!! Oh and the clam chowder ….Amazing too!!!

    My fiancee' s mom suggested this as a possible after wedding meal, so we had to try it. She went to the restroom as soon as we got there and said it was disgusting. The waitress took our orders and soon after told us that she would be going on her break, so she would have a coworker check on us. Our food came and nobody ever came to check on us, except the manager, who asked how everything was. My fiancee said good. I said ok(we don't like to complain and shouldn't have to, just to have somebody to refill our drinks, which never happened). Some of the food was good. The mozzarella sticks were delicious. The loaded potato skins were barely warm and not very tasty. The mac and cheese burger was very good. Loaded mashed potatoes were good, but would be better if not in a small bowl, where you can't mix the toppings very well. The chocolate cake was good. We spent $100 for a burger, baked potato, 2 appetizers and 2 pieces of chocolate cake. For the price, the food and service should be much better!
