    I had a 7pm reservation, the host informed us that they were a little behind. My date and I waited at the bar and got sat about 7:20. After getting seated we waited 30 minutes for someone to greet us. Servers walked past us and did not acknowledge us until we had to flag someone down to speak to the manager. Other tables that were sat after us were eating and we didn’t even order. We explained to the manager and she did comp part of the bill.

    We had a large group. We believe our server was assigned more than one large group at the same time. This resulted in very slow service. No offer of drink refills without specific requests. Food was good, as always.

    After waiting an hour past our reserved time, we decided to find food elsewhere. The lobby was completely packed full of people that had had reservations for over an hour before. The bathroom had a sink overflowing, no toilet paper. Disaster. Will not return.

    This venue is next door to Nationwide arena. They are not staffed enough to manage on event days at the arena. We had a 6.30pm booking, arrived at 6.20pm. Did not get seated until 7.10pm. The whole lobby area and bar area was packed with unhappy customers all waiting to be seated. The poor staff members there were nice enough, but clearly over their heads with the volume of bookings and walk ins. Once seated, you found that there were most tables empty, which just shows that it's a staffing issue. I would not recommend attending when an event is going on. That aside, the food was great, though it would be nice if they catered for groups of 2, as the cost of the sharing plates does not scale down well to 2. We new this ahead of time, but would be a nice option on event days at the arena next door.
