    I had family visiting from out of state. Since I LOVE your restaurant so much, I suggested we go there. The potato soup was terrible and 3 people ordered it. I felt awful. I'm sure they won't return. Too bad too because they are locals. The serving size looked more like a cup of soup rather than a bowl. 🥲

    Service left a lot to be desired. Waited for quite some time for drinks when we needed one. We were never checked on outside of bringing our first round of drinks and our meal. We had 7 at our table and 5 meals were brought out and the other 2 weren’t brought until about 10 minutes later.

    My friends and I all enjoyed our lunch today at The FourNine. I had the delicious Hibachi Wrap with chicken and additional Yum Yum on the side. I tasted my friend’s Bruschetta Burger, and may be trying it my next visit. Five Stars to our server who was very friendly and seemed to appreciate our “humor”

    The food was great! Service was a little slow and we sat without drinks for about 20 minutes. We had good company so it was fine! We will definitely be back.
