   It wa a very disappointing experience from beginning to end. We were seated after 25 minutes of waiting on the lobby, then it took them another 30 minutes to take our order which at the end was the manager that had to come to take care of it. We had a party of 3 adults and 2 kids and our son was very excited because it was $1 kids Wednesday, we told the manager to bring the kids food right away as they were starving and that if it was need it our Family style fajitas could come later. To our surprise the fajitas came first and the kids food came 15 minutes later. They had to change our sweet corn servings as to even the surprise of the waiter they looked a watery mass. And to top it off at the end of the evening the manager only gave us a $1 dollar discount for 1 of the kids because according to her we only order 1 entree but clearly our plate states that it is for 4 people and even the price is much higher than if the adults had ordered each one entree. So total fail by the manager who handle our dinning experience from beginning to end without even acknowledging the shortcomings of the poor service that she provided. If it makes any difference look the reviews that I had posted for this location throughout the years as we have been coming to this restaurant for decades. We are extremely disappointed to say the least.

   Getting there at 4:30 in the afternoon before the crowd got there really helped.
