    Food was excellent. Server Cody was extremely pleasant, and his recommendations were spot on! Staff were aware we were celebrating my wife’s birthday, and made it a point to greet and acknowledge. Great experience. Advise making reservations in advance. Overall, highly recommended!

    Very pleased with adult entrees options. Food was delicious, however the children’s menu options were not good. My daughter ordered the chicken with cheesy grits. Grits had good flavor, but were very dry. The chicken was terrible - bland, dry, no sauce to make it more appetizing. Would have much rather had chicken tenders as an option. Our server Sam was inattentive. Only refilled water once towards the end of the meal. He then switched up our receipts and while we tried to figure out who was paying what, he responded very rudely with “just stop!, let me figure this out!” Adult’s meals were served first and my daughter had to wait 20 minutes for her dry chicken to be served. Our reservation was at 6:15 and we weren’t seated until 6:35. We were then late for our house reservations at 8:15 because the food service was so slow. As an annual passholder who dines at the Stable Cafe frequently, I was not pleased with this visit.

    We arrived all was well. Our waiter was great in answering any questions we had. We felt that the food wasn’t great for its the cost of it. It wasn’t a wow factor. I personally had the mushroom risotto and it was bland, horrible. My daughter had it as well and felt the same, so it wasn’t just me. Overall very expensive and felt the quality didn’t meet the standards of cost.
