    We were greeted by a hostess that was very friendly but right away. I noticed the seating was a little too close for me so she accommodated us by allowing us to go upstairs and find better seating. We ordered drinks and food right away. Our drinks came out very pretty and tasted great however, 45 minutes later the waitress came to let us know that the party of 10 was taking priority and it was going to be a while longer, and if we would want to order drinks. I honestly wasn’t looking to just get wasted that night so we turned down her suggestion. I felt like they were putting their inability to plan for the night on us as the customer I felt like she should’ve offered us a plate of appetizers and an apology. However, their food eventually came, but unfortunately, it was only one of our entrées that was extremely over dried out chicken and a plate of pasta that was not edible. I was looking for a fine dining experience and I’ve never in my life been served entrée separately. This place just kept making mistake after mistake: I’ve been served better food in a cafeteria. We asked for our check for the drinks and left. Thank goodness O’Shea’s is across the street and they saved all night.

    The food was good but I feel like it was way overpriced. For the money the portion size should be bigger, but they are small. I wish them luck but I won’t be going back there again.

    It has been about a year since I’ve been here. What an awful experience I must say food was not so great at all and the service was terrible could have been better we was celebrating my dads 65th birthday and this experience was horrible. Will not be returning back to this restaurant.

    The waitress was wonderful, and the ambiance was also. And that's as far as it went. Food was tasteless, steak was not cooked correctly, and had no flavor. I definitely will pass this restaurant up in the future!!!

    The management was very rude, he was rushing us to clear our table after we dinned & at first I didn’t think he as being rude but then he kept making sure to stare until we left, he was getting smart wit the children. Very unprofessional.
