    We were seated within a few minutes of arriving with a reservation. The room is very nice and the ocean view is fantastic. After being seated, we waited almost a half hour before our waiter showed up. He took our drink orders for wine and brought us the wine 20 minutes later. After ordering, it took 45 minutes to get our food. My wife asked for extra sour cream for her baked potato and received it 10 minutes later. Our server appeared to be the only one covering many tables. My wedge salad was okay, I've had better. I also had beef tips that were very good. My wife had salmon and baked potato that were well cooked and very good. The meal took 2 hours due to the really slow service or problems in the kitchen or both. This is not the experience we have previously had on a couple other occasions. We will go back but never with the same server.
