   We had a terrible experience here and will not return. We waited 20 minutes for a table even though we had a reservation. The service was terrible. Our server disappeared for 30 minutes after we ordered. We went to the bar to order our own drinks. The food took forever and was subpar when it came out. The restaurant is incredibly loud. Our server also spilled Coke on me and didn’t apologize. I’ve never had such a negative experience in a restaurant.

   Since I do not eat pork, I order the turkey tips. They are extremely tender and delicious!

   Not sure what changed, but plate presentation is now all in paper/cardboard. Sauces in plastic ramekins. A step down for an establishment that appeared to be doing well. Next is plastic utensils. Food is decent but cold use some work on greens, Mac, and cold cornbread. Bartenders seem to think they’re better than the rest of the staff and had an attitude. Asked for plates for our platter since server was busy, looked at me like I had shh on my face. Teamwork makes business as well as the team success. Planned on leaving the table and to the bar later and leave gratuitu there as well, but didn’t order and didn’t go there because of the attitude. Also, if customers are walking, your bartender cut me off as well as two other patrons. Let the customer go first. Your carry out bid isn’t that important than setting the perceived culture.

    The food was delicious and our server Lex McKee amazing. He made sure our glasses were refilled without use asking.He took his time to explained any and all questions about the menu as well as pricing. He was very knowledgeable about everyone meal as well as giving us excellent suggestions. Thanks for the amazing service. Thanks for accommodating our large group. Lex went above and beyond.
