    Mother’s Day meal was subpar this year. The prime rib available when we were there was severely over cooked. Pancakes were rubbery and salty. Eggs were basic powdered eggs, little flavor. They had a hard time keeping items on the buffet line full.

    Definitely a Rochester favorite! Very lively but pretty loud, so conversation is tough. Great casual place to take your family. Excellent queso appetizer. Menu offers something for everyone.

    Friday evenings are busy, so I made a reservation. We arrived early, and were told they are waiting on our table to get ready. We waited. Then we waited some more. We see tables sitting empty but we still wait. Then we saw people coming in and be seated right away, but we still waited. I got impatient and asked when are we going to get our table, and was told "a few more minutes". I turn my back and immediately I get a text that my table is ready. Are you kidding me??? I just talked to you and you told me it was not ready. I don't know if it's just bad service or they were making fun of us, but anyway I'm not looking forward to going back.

    Excellent food and service. Reservation required we saw many people come in between 5:30-6:30 with no seating available. Only concern is noise. Happy crowd noise is very evident even in booth.
