    Trying to plan a group trip with old co-workers is a daunting task in itself. Trying to pick a time, a date, a place that is convenient for everyone almost never works out. Last minute we decided on a place, and I made a last-minute reservation for 6 of the 13 invited. Figuring id give the restaurant a heads up and chance if more showed up. With nobody giving an official rsvp, 10 showed up and everything worked out perfectly. The staff eagerly took on our additional 4 people and the service and food was excellent. The geographical location made it easy for everyone coming from all directions to meet. We will be back for sure!

    The food was excellent. The service was great. Our waitress was amazing. However, it was completely hot, muggy, and uncomfortable our entire time there for dinner. I literally had to leave and go to the car and get air conditioning because I was feeling lightheaded. Several people are party were sweating during the meal. Either the air conditioning, the ventilation or combination of all of the above just simply weren’t working.

    Our server was attentive and put a candle on a dessert for our birthday celebration. Three of us had the awesome Mother Clucker sandwich with sweet potato fries which is a top seller. Three of us had burgers which were delicious. We shared the tasty Brussel sprouts. Outstanding dinner.

    We haven’t been in a while, and now remember why. The service was absolutely terrible, which was why we stopped coming ugh. Long waits for refills, ordering etc. Food was good however my steak frites was badly overcooked. Poor experience and likely won’t return

    Been to City Line many times. Food was okay, French Toast, Waffles and French Fries came to the table not hot. Took forever to get food. Waitress Kennedy was inattentive.

    It's noisy, and it's often crowded, but it's good. Wife had blackened chicken nachos and I had Fiesta chicken. Both excellent, with good draft cider to accompany. Our waitress Kennedy was knowledgeable and professional. Don't expect fancy ambience or haute cuisine, but it's pleasant and good value.

    Unfortunately not a good experience. Waited quite a while for appetizer and then were shorted 2 wings. Server corrected. Waited another hour for entrees. Visited this location last year and experience was great across the board.
