    Overall a nice experience, but the service was not the best. Took a long time to get their attention and then they would never check on us, and the biggest pet peeve was asking if we were done with our food and when saying we’re still working on it, the person still removed it. Same thing happened with the drinks. Clearly hadn’t finished our drinks and the person still took the drinks from our table.

    Food was amazing. We ordered the Fried Pickles, Chips and Dip, Shrimp Scampi, and the Double Wagyu Burger. The food was delicious, except for the Chips and Dip. The carrot chips were too hard for my liking and I didn’t find anything special with the dip, although it was suggested by our waitress. The lackluster appetizer didn’t overshadow the rest of the food. This is my second time dining at Employees Only and I will definitely be coming again. The only downside of the night was the assigned table. We were seated next to a main isle and it was a bit hard to hear each other from across the table at times. I rated it 4/5 because of the lackluster appetizer and the assigned table, but I definitely recommend!
