Very disappointing. Food was not hot. Choices were limited. No salad bar. Absolutely not worth the price. However, the servers were very helpful and friendly.

It touts itself as a great restaurant with southern flare, but the menu was only one page long. Sandwiches, wings, fries, chicken tenders, and two main options of salmon or chops. I understand now why we were the only people in there at dinner time. I thought it was just because it was a Tuesday, but no.

Ate here several tints over my stay. One server excellent, the other distant and inattentive. Had to remind them to bring me items I'd asked for two or three times. GM seems nice. Hostess nice. Food pretty good. But I hate like seeming like an inconvenience when I ask for something as simple as ketchup.

The service was phenomenal! I enjoyed the sides, but my NY Strip steak wasn't the best. My husband got the Ribeye and said it was good. Clean, comfortable restaurant, but it's part of a hotel.
