    Our waitress was amazing but the kitchen lost one of our meal tickets. I received my entree about 40mins after the rest of my party. Not a pleasant experience Decor is wonderful

    Ate at Derailed on a beautiful evening. The location is great and the outdoor seating area is very cool! Unfortunately, both the food and the service were terrible. We waited for our food for nearly an hour when the restaurant was dead and then was told they were out of one of the meals ordered. When the meal was finally brought out, my order was wrong (more waiting). Our server never checked on us, not once. We had to go inside and hunt someone down for the check. The worst thing was not one person in our party found the food anything but meh. Derailed touts itself as having flavorful food but everything was dry and bland. I was excited to try Derailed but likely won’t go back unless just for drinks and to sit outside at the fire table.

    Reservations were made. My wife, daughter and I stood there waiting to be seated (at a mainly empty restaurant) to celebrate Mothers Day for 15 minutes. Then we were told it’s open seating on the patio after asking, so we found a seat. After 20 minutes of not be waited on, we just left. Terrible first impression as we were excited to try this place out. Ended up walking across the street to another restaurant where we were taken care of.

    Food is excellent, service is even better. Taylor has been our server several times and each time she makes us feel more and more welcome.
