    It was very busy at the time, but since we had booked reservations an hour early (which was about the wait time) we had been seated right away. Staff was friendly and the food and drinks were delicious. Service was a little slow but I would attribute that to the high volume of customers. I would definitely go there again :)

    Ambience is good, food was good, hostess was friendly, but our waiter was horrible. Took 15 mins for him to approach our table, was not knowledgeable about the menu - he misinformed us about a food item and didn't even apologize or try to make it right when it arrived and we pointed out the error. He never came back to our table again even though we were seated by the food pick up area where he could see that we were out of water - he was just standing around. We waived him down for our bill and that was it. May be I'll be back for drinks but not worth dining here because of the service.

    I read the menu before selecting this place. My mouth was watering in anticipation. My friend and I chose a share platter. Some of the items were great tasting (the ribs and pulled pork) but the other items were so-so. I found the house ketchup too sweet. Maybe because I was drinking wine instead of beer, the food may be better suited to the taste of beer.

    This was our 3rd visit. Enjoyed every time. The dinosaur ribs were disappointing however. Two ribs: one had hardly any meat and the other was fatty. Probably won't have them again. Service was good. Food is generally very good.
