    My mom, my sister and I had a lovely dinner. Our server was very accommodating as we tried to figure out how to feed three of us without overindulging. The food was delicious as always and it was a nice end to the day.

    Great service. I had the blackened chicken pasta and was very good. Overall, 6 people at our table with no complaints. We all had a great time.

    I was very disappointed with this visit. The hostess who greeted me was rude and a little "snooty." Despite my having selected standard seating, she haughtily said the only table she had for me was in the bar (I was the first of our party of three, and I use a rollator, which has never been an issue in past visits). If I wanted to sit in a noisy bar, with loud music, and didn't want to converse with the other members of my party, we could have gone to any of a 100 other restaurants or pubs. Our poor waitress was running herself ragged (it was the bartender and our waitress), and it took a little longer than usual for our dinner. But the food, as always, was excellent, and my two dinner guests were very impressed with the food, but not so much the atmosphere. It was the FIRST VISIT for them both. I'll be back, because I'm not letting this one visit overshadow prior excellent visits, but it took me a good half hour to calm down enough and not walk out (which we discussed when they both arrived).
