   Place is rundown, dirty, and simply overpriced for the value of the food. Every dish tasted like microwave food.

   Great family fun. Party of 8 seated promptly. Accommodating bringing kids food first while adults enjoy a beverage. Lots of choices from salads to sandwiches, to full entrees.

   I’d booked ahead as we were a big party (12 of us) and when we got there it took them 25 minutes to seat us, it was as if they weren’t expecting us. As they made us stand and wait in the corner for 25 minutes, no one came over to make sure we were okay or to apologise. We could see them pulling tables together and using old napkins from a previous table. We sat down 45 minutes after the reservation was booked for. And the server came over and took everyone’s drink order bar one, so we had to chase her down to put the last one on, I understand it’s a big table so sometimes things get missed. We had 1 vegetarian and 1 vegan in our party and we were told they had menus for these requirements so asking the server, she said we could have a plain salad, or a turkey burger… she proceeded to ask me if vegetarians could eat turkey. Not great coming from the person who’s suppose to guid you through their menu. We said at this point, we would have 1 drink and leave and no manager was brought over to see what could be done, no apologises just constant excuses. When someone in our party gave her card, it then took an extra 10 minutes as the server was serving tables in between taking the payment. Overall, not a great experience, wouldn’t recommend. We ended up at chillys and had a wonderful night. Go there instead.

   Service is worst every time. They literally mistreat you. Only coming here a few times a year because the kids loves it.

    Great for kids, waitress was great and responsive but service was pretty slow- kids dinners came out quickly but adults took almost a full hour.
