    It was wonderful, the server was excellent, they checked on us all the time. Wish the may would've come more I had my green on for 5mins and no one came. I never far the chicken legs but I heard it was some and they would send them my easy but did not come. This was my first time here and my man and I was there for our first date and he highly recommended them to me. Didn't get me stuffing the food was excellent and the salad bar was superb. Just wish I had food coming my way when my green is on, since people told me, when it is on they will attack you with food. Thank you.
