   The waiter we had was awesome despite being new to the job. That said, we had a unique experience in the sense we tried to walk in and get a seat and were told they were only accepting reservations and that they were booked all night. Hearing this, knowing we weren’t dressed our best, we were curious to see if there were any last minute cancels. To our surprise there were several reservations times open and in fact during our dinner we noticed that not a single person came in after us. We originally came in at 8 and were denied, but later set a res for 8:30pm and were laughed at when we came back in for it. The place was not busy at all, maybe 20% capacity and we did up spending around $150 for a meal between myself and my wife. Overall the food was fair, but overpriced for what you get. The service was good, but the host staff seemed more worried about trying to get the restaurant to close early than provide equitable service to all its guests.

   Are here before and remembered it being fantastic! Live music Wes nice but was too loud to have a conversation. Got the Filet and it was cooked to temperature but the accompanying baked potato was Luke warm and the broccolini under seasoned. A good meal nonetheless, but not what I remember it being.

   What a disappointment. The Fettuccine Alfredo was more like Al dente. The Pan Seared Scallops were not seared and were lukewarm warm with a raw middle. No golden caramelized finish as described on the menu. The baked potato was not done and seemed a little stale. The Maryland Crab Dip with chips was the highlight.

   Out of white wine, and 3 entrees. No gluten free pasta. I ordered 5 entrees until they found a Gluten Free Option. Our bill was 172$ and salad was limp, baked potatoes were over cooked and salmon was tiny.

   Our food arrived cold and with one meal missing. We were not given an opportunity to speak with a manager about our issues. Our server was uninformed and inattentive. The kitchen and bar kept “just running out” of food and drinks that we ordered.

   Good food and menu. Seemed to maybe be understaffed. Pretty good waitress, but plates came out incomplete and missing items. Very friendly though.

   The owner of this restaurant needs to take control. He needs to work with the staff and find a better manager. We had to wait over an hour for our lunches. The only good person there was our waitress and she was totally overwhelmed. Need to hire more people.

   I hosted a work lunch here on Tuesday. I had made a reservation and when I arrived the front door was locked. They were to have opened an hour before and there were other customers in the parking lot waiting to get in as well. I called the restaurant, and they came and unlocked the door. There were some employees in the back but no customers. We had to ask our server two times for our drinks, and she never brought one of them. It took over an hour for our food to come out and one of the items didn't arrive until we were about to leave. The whole experience took two and a half hours, which is unacceptable for lunch time. Our server was very overwhelmed and inattentive, but here were only about 5 other tables during that time. Unfortunately, this is the third negative experience that I have had there, and at this point I do not plan to go back.

   The portions are small and everything is expensive. The staff is friendly. We waited over 30 minutes for our food. The dessert we had (this outing was for our birthday) were large pieces and I was grateful for that!

    It was ridiculously slow. Firstly, it was only 5 pm and only 15 people in the restaurant when we were seated with reservations. It took 32 minutes from the time we sat down to get initial drinks to the table (iced tea). Then, the order was taken, and another 30 for just beginning salad and soup to be delivered. To say the soup was warm would be a lie. Lastly, the main course was delivered a whopping 27 min later with half of our meals cold and some completely incorrectly ordered/made. Then our refill drink order was taken, and it was a forever wait for 2 drinks. An important side note is that we could see a few of our food items sitting under warmer for most of that time. I did speak to the night manager, who stated we could have free desserts, but she would not adjust the cost of any meals. She stated owners were not in the building, and there were new hires. When I returned to my seat, it took 35 more minutes for bill and to go desserts to be at table. All told a 5 pm reservation lasted until after 7 pm. For the price of the meal and status of the restaurant it was a great disappointment. We were not looking for free food, just a positive experience. An important side note, our waitress was pleasant and apologetic. Would not recommend.
