First of all, our server, Ilene, was the best, as was our hostess, Amanda! Second, the food was great! My granddaughter and I split the grilled chicken sandwich, which was plenty for each of us with fries, all very delicious. My husband enjoyed his salad. Third, the music was so loud we could hardly enjoy conversation with each other. But overall, our visit was great.
