    I reserved a table for 4 through the online booking system. I indicated that we were celebrating a birthday. We walked right in the door, gave my name and were immediately seated, which wasn't an issue because there were less than 10-15 tables with guests. However, we were given the absolutely WORST table in the restaurant, which was on the 2nd floor, back in the corner behind the elevator by an unused server station, with all of the blinds closed. It was a dark/dungeonlike/depressing seating. We asked to be moved next to the window in one of the 7+ EMPTY tables. Our server was new, so you can forgive a few little foibles, although they had indicated that they had previously been working at the check-in station, so you would think that they would be familiar with the hospitality processes of general waitering. Our drinks were filled regularly, and food brought promptly. We were asked if we wanted desert, we declined, and then they looked at their hand-held terminal and said "it looks like someone has a birthday" and they had a brownie for them. After bringing the brownie, the server began clearing the table, even though two of us were still nibbling and I was still eating my order of onion rings. The server was reaching right in front of my face to take the dirty plate from a member of my party. I literally had to stop from putting an onion ring in my mouth because it was blocked with a dirty, food scrapped plate as the server collected it. There was no reason to rush us out the door or to clear the table while some guests were still eating. I am a chef, culinary arts program director and professor. It doesn't take all the education/experience of a culinary professional to know you don't take dirty plates in front of someone's face while they are trying to eat. It wasn't like there was a line to get in the restaurant. They didn't need our table and we obviously weren't through or ready to leave.

    Been going here since it opened - they have been consistent in their service and food/drink quality. The staff is always friendly. The burgers are some of the best around and we love the fries too! Highly recommend.

    We had an excellent waitperson - she acknowledged everyone in our group and was attentive throughout. Food was as ordered and came out in a reasonable amount of time. Recommend making reservations.

    Recommend reservations. Our server was very pleasant and attentive throughout. The restaurant was very busy but she kept an eye on her patrons with refills, etc. Orders were prepared and cooked as ordered.
