"BAD SERVICE when you book parties over 6!
We watched everyone around us get served properly, drinks and water right away, but not us
We got seated right away, which was nice, the place was slammed considering it was Easter Sunday!!
We sat down, and a waiter didn't come to the table for 40min,we watched others who had been seated when we were, and they were properly catered too
When we finally got the waiters attention, we ordered our drinks when we ordered our food
Our food came 30min later, but our drinks didn't even come until after we finished eating. The waiter didn't give us the attention that we deserved becuase we were a party of 7, and the service charge was already included in the bill, they know the tip is included and don't"

"We have been going to this restaurant for over 30 years. Under the old ownership, seating was booth style, not good for large family gatherings. And, the hostess always made a fuss, couldn't "guarantee" about being able to seat us in the section that did have the few table/chairs. The new set-up with table and chair seating is MUCH better. We like the old menu, more choices. The new menu is limited especially for frequent repeat customers like us that live only 5 minutes away. I can see us tiring of this menu quickly. Overall, a great restaurant, especially for visitors from out of town."

"You pay for the view--which is spectacular. The food is only average. The service the afternoon we were there was terrible. We were ignored while we waited to be seated at the reception desk. This was Sunday afternoon and the place was not even busy. The waiter brought the wrong drinks to the table--not once, but twice. The food was ok, but just ok. We were a party of 4 adults and 2 small kids. For over $200, we could have done better somewhere else."
