Might have been the worst service I’ve ever experienced. My wife is gluten free. We called ahead to verify they had options and were told they did. Waitress was very unknowledgeable. She forgot to tell the cooks to make the pasta dish gluten free. Fortunately we recognized this by the type of pasta on the dish. When we inquired she had to go ask the chef. She stopped at other tables on the way back while our food was cooling off to tell us they had used regular pasta. We sent it back. On the way back to kitchen she sat other patrons who had arrived. 20 minutes later the correct food arrived , but only after I had asked her to go check. A request for Parmesan cheese showed up 10 minutes later. Food flavor was decent but service horrible. No manager to be seen. Outside deck was nice.

Food was excellent. They had no records of my reservation so we had an odd table they made work. My largest complaint was for 2 items ordered service came back to table just before due and said they ran out of cheese for a salad and I ordered a desert that takes 40 minutes but you came to me and told me no when due to serve. If I order something tell me at that time we are out of X but don’t let me imagine it and kill it last second. Food was fantastic just didn’t like how short product was handled

They did'nt have our reservation on the books. A lot of good it did to book in advance. Thank goodness it was just my wife and I and not a group. We were allowd to sit at the bar and made the best out of a bad situation. Don't think I will trust open table with a reservation again with out following up with the resturant itself

Never even got to our table. We got there and another group of 4 was at the bar. We waited at the bar for about 15 minutes before we were told there was no bartender. After 20 minutes of no one helping us and the group of 4 saying their reservation was 45 min ago and still were not seated, we left.
