                                                    Sat down 10 minutes before our reservation then was told we could order for at 25-30 minutes due to kitchen being backed up despite being multiple open tables due to being a scratch kitchen. Had to ask for bread after not being offered anything. Went to order and they were out of filet Mignon which three people wanted. Food find came out and was under seasoned and server rarely checked back and had to ask other workers questions.

                                                    We ate entrees separately, and mine came up at the same time as my main meal. Getting attention for a drink from the many staff was hard as only one seemed to be working that night. Others just stood and gossiped

                                                    When we arrived for our reservation we were told that OpenTable reservations were all blocked and they had no tables for us. They then tried to seat us in a separate unadorned room at two small high top tables. When we refused, they said they could offer us a suitable table in 20 minutes. We waited and then were seated. The seats on one side were much lower than those on the other. So they seated us at a better balanced table. The food was good though mine was a little overdone. When the bills came they did not add up correctly since the entrees were only partially included and we had to insist on corrections. Odd place.
