    Our server was excellent! Food was surprisingly great . . . Typically, themed restaurants are lacking in food quality, not Derby! Atmosphere is great too! Make it $5 to tour the car area and you will get more people!

    Great food and service. Cool concept. Only knock is that I couldn’t tell online if the cars were available to view if you were a diner. It states online that they offer tours at a cost but I half hoped that the car show room would be available to walk around in if you were a paying customer. You still have a clear view of the show floor from the dining area

    Only 1 waiter for the whole restaurant so naturally, he wasn’t very pleasant. Not his fault he was overwhelmed. The food was awful, I could have had better at taco bell. The steak was not worth $40, over seasoned and all gristle. They brought my sons steak out with an empty gravy bowl. Sorry but not going back

    Our service was at best mediocre, our waitress was also the hostess so her attentiveness was definitely not there for us. They were in such a hurry to collect plates after appetizers and even while I was still eating. We also had to ask for napkins and silverware (more than once) I was expecting a high end experience and it was not that at all. The food was decent but nothing to experience again and for the price can find tastier food elsewhere.

    0 stars* Overpriced, food quality was BAD, service was okay. We made reservations for Valentine’s Day and we will definitely NOT be going back!!! Worst experience at a restaurant!! They didn’t have the appetizer nor the entrée that I requested due to “a big event they had” that day! We couldn’t even go downstairs to see the cars due to it being “closed” even though we went at 7! The food was overpriced and not good at all! Left after an hour of receiving our drinks and went to another restaurant!
