    Hostess (Olivia) was extremely lazy, rude and unapologetic and sarcastic! Made reservations on open table and marked “inside seating” and when arrived and checked in, she had us wait while she stood there chatting with another hostesses then comes over and proceeds to sit us outside; when I let her know I reserved a request for inside seating she rolled her eyes then said to wait again while she stood there again spaced out… the comes over to seat us at a table that was too small as I was wither a party with a 7’1” tall male, 6’11” male and a 6’1” female, so when we asked for a spacier table again she rolls her eyes and made us wait again when clearly there were plenty of tables open! Olivia needs to be reprimanded on her attitude and maybe even fired as the hostesses are the first impression of the restaurant!!

    Service was terrible. I had to grab my own utensils, seating request wasn’t fulfilled and the heater outside was broken. They offered to replace and never came back.
