We arrived for an early dinner at about 4:30pm. We were seated pretty much in the main walkway. Not cool! Our waitress was very unfriendly, looked at us like we were aliens or something. I don't ask for much but a smile is... (more)

This place is a joke! A 14 ounce steak where you leave 8 ounces sitting on the plate un-chewable or you had to spit it out. And a sirloin cooked to the brink of nuclear distruction when ordered "medium" I heard the hype and... (more)
