    We really enjoyed the food but our waiter was overwhelmed because he was serving a large party as well as the four of us. Our friends received their salad and I mentioned that my husband had also ordered a salad (that we were sharing) but it did not come out until the entrees came out - he had a salad, crab cakes and a potato at the same time. The food was really good!

    We ve been numerous times and the food is delicious but for some reason the service was aweful last night. First of all it took forever to get our food. Some dishes came out even later than the first ones they brought. They totally forgot to bring one of the drinks we ordered. We ve ordered this one bottle of wine numerous time and every time they say they do not have it. Then take it off the menu. Just not a good night there. Disappointed

    Trout almondine was perfectly fried and very fresh. The Louie Salad with Thousand Island dressing with a kick was scrumptious. I also enjoyed their specialty cocktail, Citrus Mojito
