    We had an enjoyable time. Friends were wonderful. Server was great. However I just felt like the food was a little flat for me. It’s been more than five years since I’ve come. And I’m a big fan at the airport. Although I give that a little bit of grace in the sense that it’s such a fast turnover out there And actually the food that I’ve had there was better than my chicken. I think I was expecting a little more for $31. It was tasty although it wasn’t super tender and it’s called chicken two ways but it was really just as simple single breast. I don’t know I was expecting more of a woodfired oven sort of thing that had Two different variations. I’ll probably come back and try it again, but it did leave me lacking.

    Food was very good, but not excellent. The rock fish was great. The un-ions and short rib were only good.

    Everything was good ..service was fun. They have Wednesday happy hour but only in lounge Would seem they could just extend to restaurant as well since it's all night. Why pat one price for lounge and another for same item in dining room...
