I? would rate our server as excellent. The food was a little slow in coming but hit and good when we got it. The host was friendly enough but the cashier could use some work on her manners. She tended to be a bit rude and has been in the past. I didn’t feel like she likes the use of this coupon deal.

I had no expectations of this place, but the experience was great. Our server was friendly and the service was great. We had a party of 5 and ordered 2 Dinner for Two. It was enough for all of us. There is also complimentary ice cream (strawberry or rocky road). I will definitely be back.
