The outdoor tent has no heat at all. It was freezing. And the music kept going in and out.

We come every year the day after Thanksgiving, however this will be our last time going. The service was absolutely terrible today. Our server rarely came to check on us. We had two brunch dishes that had toast served. We had to go to the hostess desk to request a knife and butter as our server never came to check on us. The hostess said to us when we asked for butter, well it’s not that type of restaurant. I said but your serving brunch food, you need jelly or butter for toast and your other items. It took 25 min to get a knife and butter. They missed a side we ordered and we were nearly done with our meal when it finally came. Then when we asked for the receipt there was a 14% service charge on a table of 4.

The manager duty was rude and crabby. We had reservations and still waited one hour to get seated. It was freezing cold and we had 8 teens with us who had no coats and she told us to wait outside. She ruined what should’ve been a fun & memorable experience.
