    This was a bad experience from the beginning. The first room had no AC so we moved to the bar room. We had ordered a drink when we were seated and then salads a bit later. The drinks did not come for 25 minutes after our salads were served. Upon receiving the check I asked to speak to the manager and suggested he would remove the drinks. He told me not possible. I indicated I would note this in my review. He then offered 2 canollois to go but that was not viable given our schedule.

    Most of our food came out cold, our group sent several things back. My feet stuck to the floor… which was carpeted. Bathrooms were disgusting. Have significant doubts the kitchen is clean.

    I understand the rush especially on Memorial day weekend, I myself am a server. But to not greet your table of 2 for 10 mins and only get them drinks is absurd. We saw our server at least 10 times before he got our order and even then didn’t put it in right away. Our server asked us if we want bread for the table(did not tell us the price) so we 100% assumed it was free just like bread at Texas Roadhouse. We got our appetizer after we got our entree. We got our bill and the bread was $19. We also asked if they have a military discount, Our server and bartender then gave snappy attitude answer saying no they don’t like it was a horrible thing to ask.

    We were there for dinner and were told you could only order family style when we clearly saw other tables ordering individual plates. We had a person who has celiac and needed to order gluten free. Not a lot on the gf menu and theirs also came out in a super larger family portion. The salad was good but the spaghetti and chicken were just meh. The ambiance is fun and the service was great but we will not be going back and would not recommend it to anyone we know.

    The experience was great - Christina was very helpful in making us have an excellent dinner. Delicious food, nice ambience and service. And I forgot my backpack at the restaurant - I called over an hour after they closed, and she was there locking up and came out to give me the bags - was truly great service the whole time!
