   Thought our last visit a few weeks ago was a fluke but apparently not. The first 5-6 times we ate here over the last 3 years everything was fantastic from the service, experience, quality of food, everything. To say that our visit today was appalling is the nicest way I can put it into words. Our table of 5 ordered 2 appetizers, 2 salads, 2 adult entrees, and 1 kids entree. The first side salad came out in a reasonable amount of time and tasted fresh. That’s where the pleasant experience ends outside of having some of our glasses of water refilled twice. We sat there with no appetizers, no second salad, and no entrees (both kid’s and adult) for 50 whole minutes before our server came over and asked if we were “okay”. During this check-in we asked how much longer our food would take to which we were told “I’m not sure, hopefully it will only be another few minutes. That’s why I was coming over to ask if you are all okay.” We then asked if it was possible to just get our son his meal as he was patiently waiting for 50 minutes for chicken fingers and fries. While bringing the kids meal over we were assured again that the appetizers and remaining food that was missing should be out shortly. Another 15 minutes went by before we had to walk up to the hostess ourselves asking to speak with a manager to express our concerns and frustration. At no point during the 65 minutes from the time we placed our order did our server or a manager let us know that the kitchen may have been running a bit behind or apologize for the wait or offer to remedy the situation. Once the remaining food came there were several issues. The Caesar salad had lettuce that was brown and wilted while the grilled chicken on top was ice cold. The loaded Mac and cheese along with the pulled pork sandwich arrived at room temperature. The pirogies served were frozen Mrs T’s which could have been purchased from a grocery store and made at home. Poor service, communication, and execution. Unbelievable.

   The waitress took forever and was not extremely busy. The Ferris wheel lousy especially the fatty bacon bites. Save your money. Food was nothing great. Would have rather of gotten food from the stands around the park.

   Not busy when we ate (5 people), Service was slow and Waitress disappeared for 15 mins until we asked the hostess to go find her so we could get the 2nd half of our drink order. Food was so-so but with an exec chef on staff and high prices, I do expect better. We’ve been here many times and while it’s rarely like this, it will give us pause in the future. We can have a similar experience for a lot less money at Red Robin nearby.

   Our waitress Renee was fabulous! She offered authentic and sincere conversation, and was helpful and considerate. We loved the creative chocolate spin with the food and felt is was well balanced between sweet and savory. We enjoyed out meal.

    The food was great but you make a reservation and have to wait 55 mins for a table even through empty tables

We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and hope to provide you with a smoother experience on your next visit.
