He was a considerate person and since our group was not in a hurry we understood. It took time for our drinks and food but when we got them, all was great. The Friday night fish fry is definitely a good deal. All you can eat and you could order baked or tempura fried cod. It was all very good and my friend said it was the best fish sauce she ever had. The cole slaw was very good also. I think once the staff becomes familiar with the menu, etc., the order time will improve. The seating was comfortable. The lighting is good to see the menu but I would have preferred a dimmer look. We all agreed that this spot was a keeper and that we would return.

Plus the fries were outstanding, also freshly made. Our table overlooked the practice putting green and the 28th fairway. Being a golfer this was a fun background to watch. Gerber, our waiter, was excellent. Attentive without being intrusive. There were mostly golfers after their round having drinks rather than diners, but we will go back again as the menu looked good for other items other than the fish fry.

We had a reservation for 6:45 and were a bit early, yet they seated us right away. We came for the fish fry because we had heard such good things. They had a host, one server for everyone, a person bussing tables and what looked to be a manager and a bartender. We were asked about drinks right away and ordered beer and wine. Then we ordered the half broiled and half fried fish special, and were told we were the last ones because that just ran out of fish. My husband had the boiled potatoes and I had the fries. We also ordered side Caesar salads. The salads were pretty good. When our entrees came out, they looked pretty good, but right away we asked for more lemon, tarter sauce (because there wasn’t any) and another beer. All of those took nearly ten minutes to get, when we clearly saw the manager just standing around. We were about halfway through our meal when it all finally came. The fried fish was definitely better than the broiled, as that was on the drier side and somewhat tasteless. Fries were good and so were the potatoes. Coleslaw was just okay. Overall, we would give it another try, in hopes that the service would improve. Having one server for both inside and outside, is not enough especially on a Friday night. Our server was very sweet, but spread far too thin.

It was a little more pp than the group was looking for, but the food was great, service was great, and we were very happy that were NOT over-packed in with too many tables and a lot of turn-the-table pressure, like other special events are often. Overall, it was a great event and we'll be going again!

Who wants to sit at a high top table for dinner? It’s uncomfortable and doesn’t allow a good social interaction. The food was good. The service was a little lacking in experience. We asked the waiter what wines were available. He brought out a Chardonnay, a Riesling and a red blend. I have never heard of any of them. What a choice. They had all the popular beers and bottles of liquor. No cocktail menu though. I think they’re going to have a rough year. It’s a shame because it was very good before the remodel.

We understand that you didn't enjoy your experience at the high top, but as discussed during dinner that is the table you selected (and confirmed) when making the reservation. Although we do our best to accommodate any changes, we were completely booked at every table for the remaining of the evening. A full wine menu is now available, please feel free to email us if you would like to see it. Our remodel is not fully complete; we hope to see you again in the future after our soft opening.
