I get it…busy day but the food was terrible! Cold and stale. Folks were talking about it throughout the restaurant. And…so many staff walked by ignoring our attempts to get their attention. Definitely need to up their game!

Service was very bad! Waitress did not even bring water to the table. They were out of the wine we ordered. The only ok service were the servers bringing the meat swords. Waitress never brought us coffee but still charged it to the bill as well as two kids “wrongly” billed as adults. We were also double charged for the check on our credit card and they further kept it and could not find it (someone had taken it to the office!??)

Food was worth the money. Very nice ambiance. The two down sides to the entire experience were the following. First, the restaurant was extremely cold. Second, the waiter was very responsive at first but then he disappeared and never came back.

Teething problems. Drinks were late and not properly mixed. Waitress was very pleasant. The Tyson's Virginia location is excellent and much preferred over The Wharf one.
