   Waitstaff was great, food was amazing! Drinks were to our liking. Only 4 star because of the lady manager, Mary. Bit rude when I walked in and then she went around checking on everyone's table but ours. We had others sitting around us that she visited with. Not even a nod, I'm going to make this about race because my sisters and I are not white; and everyone around us was. Location. We talked amongst ourselves - I did not even bring up the subject until they too spoke how she was gruff with them when they walked in.

   Gambino was very attentive and a great waiter. The food was on point as usual. This is one of my favorite places.

   We visit Federal Grill often. We always ask for Hector because he’s a really sweet conscientious server and always remembers our drinks order. He had a day off yesterday, so we were instead served by Noah. He was an excellent server too! Very friendly and attentive. We had sticky ribs as an appetizer and the Freedom Burger as mains. They were very nice. I tried a new cocktail called Happily Ever After, which was lovely. As always everyone was courteous and helpful and the atmosphere was great. This is our favorite restaurant in this area. They never disappoint:)

   I whole heartedly recommend this place, from previous experiences. My lower than "excellent" rating is due to a food situation that was unusual, so I'm reviewing so that management will know. Again - I highly recommend!

   My wife and I come here often and as usual everything was great. The menu has a lot of choices and on this particular visit we both had either a salad and an appetizer or two appetizers. The portions are very generous and usually that's a very satisfying meal for us. Wait staff is super friendly always smiling.

   Service and food was great. Upon waiting at the valet stand, a customer on the patio threw a ball from the patio and unleashed her dog into the parking lot which startled us. My friend is afraid of dogs so she asked the lady to please keep her dog near her until we got into our cars. The lady replied by telling us we didn’t know “American” laws. The valet attendant apologized to us several times, but this was an extremely unfortunate situation.

   Thank you for sharing your experience, Cassandra. We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed the service and food, but we sincerely apologize for the unsettling situation with the dog. That behavior is certainly not reflective of the welcoming and respectful atmosphere we strive to create for all our guests. We appreciate your patience, and we’ll be sure to address this issue to ensure a more comfortable experience in the future. Thank you again for your feedback!
