    Very slow service. Steak ordered MR came out Well done. Pork Chop lacked flavor and was also over cooked. Cocktails arrived at the table very slowly. Server was overwhelmed and clearly had too many tables.

    After we were seated for 20 min with wait staff going by us and ignoring us, we stopped a waitress and asked her who had our table. She said she didn't know but would take our order. Since it was Thanksgiving, we chose their buffet. The food was decent but nothing extraordinary. We expected a cost of around $20-$25 per person. Instead, it turned out to be $40 a person. We won't be back.

    Normally, excellent place to dine and have fun. The last time, the waiter was in over his head, absolutely worthless and made one mistake after another. Manager was gracious and comped the wine. Thanks. We'll be back.

    Oysters Rockerfeller were burned and bitter. Server was covering inside and outside tables as well as tending bar—need I say more. Restrooms filthy. Sorry to see such a decline.
