    Made reservations for 7:30pm, waited at the host area for 15 minutes and nobody showed up despite me asking about a host to two different staff. So left and ate somewhere else….

    Sadly, we probably have the worst service I’ve ever had between the server having too many tables and not enough help in the kitchen messing up every single order except for one out of the 11 it was a rough dining experience. The manager did come out and make it more manageable, but it still left a really bad taste in our mouth.

    Took over an hour to receive a salad and it was wrong. The waiter was great. The kids had fun, which is good.

    Reservation was for 6 PM. We arrived 15 minutes late, however, there is a 15 minute grace period so there shouldn’t be an issue. We checked in and waited 20 minutes for them to set up a table. After 40 minutes passed we checked in again to ask what was going on. They then told us they forgot about us and they will now go and clean the table to sit our party down. The girl took her time cleaning the table and had no sense of urgency. Our party had kids and as a restaurant worker you should always consider that when sitting and serving. We weren’t seated until after 7 PM just to be waiting 15 more mins for a someone to come by. We asked for manager instead of a waiter. We explained our horrible experience thus far and he was super cool. He didn’t tell us why it took them so long to seat us but he did apologize and gave us free appetizers. He then went and called our server who was super sweet and very friendly. From there on service was great! Food came out pretty quickly. Food was good. A bit loud even away from the arcade but great vibes. If it wasn’t for the first girl who completely disregarded us for a whole hour, it would’ve been a perfect experience.

    Busy night for the fight the place was under staffed we had a party of 8 the server was overwhelmed keep telling us that and wait time for food and drinks was too long no managers on the floor touching tables checking service or assisting the overwhelmed wait staff. The food is terrible I’ll never eat there again drinks decent. The only good thing is the TVs and the arcade.
