We explained after only eating one bite of the salmon entree that it was not good and she offered nothing. We informed her that the hash brown bites were severely burnt and she said that’s how they come. The other 3 entrees were great though! I was beyond disappointed in Service though. If she would had acted like she cared and maybe offered something different rather than trying to rush to get out of work we would have actually tipped her more and probably ordered more drinks too. We will not be returning.

At her suggestion we had the risotto meatballs for an app. They were delicious, then we had the adult chicken nuggets and the Mahi Reuben, both were very good! It was a nice experience!
