    We always love eating at the restaurant. Bobbi always greets us and makes us feel special. Maya was our server, and she was attentive. I received the email on the weekly specials and saw Rainbow Trout. When I got to the server podium, Rainbow Trout was on the blackboard. I couldn't wait to try it, but was told it wasn't available on Sundays. I was so disappointed. Maybe put "except Sun" on the email and blackboard?

    Normally an excellent venue. Caught them on a bad day. They were training a new server and had 30-45 minutes with no service. Then forgot part of the order. Finally overcooked the steak. Service was the biggest downer.
