Very disappointing. I ordered a $8 glass of wine. They charged me $13. When we saw the bill they said they did not have my wine and they had to open another wine bottle. The wine they opened did not have a per glass price so they charged us $13. Wow that was a terrible explanation! My veggie pasta with garlic and oil did not taste the garlic at all. Waa very bland. Our booth was dirty with ripped seats. Bathroom was also dirty. We love to support our local restaurants. I would not give them another chance .

Food-except for the veal meatballs -was not very good. We had a large group of over 20 people at 3 tables and there were only a couple people who said their meal was OK. Most of them said it was not good, and 3 said their meal was inedible. 2 sent their meal back. And service was terrible slow and inattentive. All in all a poor experience. No one will be going back. I personally love the meatballs but can’t tolerate the service just to get the meatballs. Sorry.

If I could give this place a 0 for service I would. We did get seated right away but it was a nightmare after that. We ordered wine and 20 minutes after we got our wine he brought out the ice bucket. My girlfriends meal came out and 25 minutes later my meal came out. I didn't get the potato I was supposed to. When we asked the hostess to find out why she said it went to another table. The final straw was my girlfriend ask to speak to the owner and she was told he was too busy.

We went on Mother’s Day and they forced us to eat the buffet. Wouldn’t let us order from the menu even a kids meal. Didn’t take our drink orders. The food from the buffet was cold seafood smelled funny, bread was hard as a rock. There was only 5 tables of people in the restaurant and 4 out of the 5 complained. The servers were arguing with the people and rolling their eyes at everyone. The manager was too busy to come and talk to us. It was a horrible experience and ruined our mother’s day.

Had Mother’s Day reservations for 5pm. We were liking forward to trying it as it’s is new and we heard good things. Also talked to gentleman that I confirmed reservations with on Saturday and he seemed happy to have us. However we didn’t stay to eat. Two of our party of 9 arrived at 4:40pm, 4 of us arrived at 4:50. The first two that arrived were not greeted by anyone and were waiting (restaurant was 85% empty). When I walked in with 4 at 4:50 still no one acknowledged us at the front. At 5 I walked over to bartender and asked if someone would would seat us and told him two in our party were already there for 15 minutes and no one said a word to them... his comment “how was I suppose to know there were here”! Then he said he would get table ready for us...another 10-15 minutes went by and during that time a women walked past us and threw a high chair in a side coat-room! She did not seem happy a big Larry was about to be seated and also didn’t do much as say hello. Now our entire party has been waiting 15 minutes while the restaurant was nearly empty..... so since our 1st impression was ruined and we were hungry and frustrated, my daughter walked next door to 25 West Brewing Company (one of our favorites in the area). She texted us back and said they could seat us right away. Our party walked out as the bartender waived us over to sit, without ever coming to great us. So after looking forward to the experience we didn’t try the food, what we could see if the atmosphere the place looked nice but the hospitality was totally non existent! Sorry to say, we won’t be back. Kudo’s to 25 West as we had a great time and a great meal!

Attended during Mother's Day, and despite the buffet being half empty at the time of our arrival, we were still forced to choose the buffet option and charged full price. When specifically asked if we could order from the menu instead, we were denied. While at the time of our arrival the food was still okay (ish), it was definitely not worth 29.99 a person. It would have been a different story if they had communicated that the buffet lacked dishes as we were seated.

The food was excellent. Our server was great when he was around. The restaurant seemed to be understaffed. The people working were trying to cover all of the tables and the bar area. If there were more workers I feel I would have rated it a 5!

Food was very good and reasonably priced. We went on a Tuesday and they had 1/2 price bottles of wine which was an excellent deal. They have a full bar and a large selection of wine. I had the pepper steak which was good but it more like medallions of filet and peppers rather than what I was expecting. Everyone enjoyed their dinners. Give it a try.
