   I love this venue but the service is horrendous. I had to ask for a waiter after 15 minutes at the table (no one came over with water or to take our order). Finally water was provided and we waited another 5 mins for the waiter. We put in apps and drinks. Apps came first. Then the bar drinks arrived 5 minutes later with 2 of them wrong (had asked for vodka instead of tequila in one of the drinks on the cocktail menu). We couldn’t find our waiter, I had to bring the drinks to the bar. They remade them in the same glasses!!! Meanwhile both myself and the other person had taken sips of out of the original glasses and didn’t know which was which. The 2 children at the table still didn’t have their lemonade and cola delivered. so I reordered that. By the time the revised drinks were made, then the lemonade and cola got to the table so they had 2 drinks each. Our waiter reappeared and took our entree orders (all menus still piled up on table). Entrees arrives timely but all appetizers were still on table and not cleaned off. We had to ask them to take the appetizers before putting down our entrees. The salad I ordered without cheese had cheese and I asked for blackened shrimp which was not blackened. The food was decent and the space and location is great. Unfortunately in the 15+ years it’s been opened, they still can’t get their service together. This was a 2:30pm lunch and the restaurant was not at full capacity.

   Busy day with weddings going on so setting up other tables, etc. The staff was very professional but seemed distracted with so many things to manage in different parts of the restaurant indoors and outdoors.
