    The Chef's Special of sautéed shrimp with polenta and wild mushrooms and asparagus was very tasty and light enough for a wonderful 1st day of Summer. The patio is a great place to dine. Our server was attentive and we were able to enjoy our cocktails before she came back to take our orders. The cost is affordable and I always look forward to having dinner on the patio and looking at the golf course.

    To start off with we sat 25 minutes without anyone coming to take our order. All the tables around us were being waited on. The table next to us, that sat down after we did got waited on before us. We were totally ignored. There was a nice waiter Sam, who was waiting on a table next to us and we asked him if he could help us. He said he was not our waiter and he knew who our waiter was, but he was happy to help us and he took our order and his service was wonderful after that. All I can say is Sam saved the night because the food was just OK.  my sister ordered the special with flank steak, which was very chewy but very tasty. Our fish tacos were nothing special. Of course the nachos were always wonderful. I know they had a couple big parties going on, so I’m sure that had something to do with our service in the beginning. That did happen to us one other time when a wedding was going on. We will know now for the future and I recommend it, that you call ahead of time and ask if there are any big parties going on because that will affect your service.  Yes for the ambience, there were no big tropical plants this year.
