    The server was not overly friendly and it was if she felt she was doing us a favor by gracing us with her presence. Otherwise, the food was good and reasonably priced.

    If you’re looking for a great restaurant in Mt Zion, this is it. Very friendly and efficient wait staff, a well rounded menu and light jazzy background music. We will eat here again soon.

    Server raved about loaded steak nachos as an appetizers. So we ordered them, expecting out of this world nachos. They were less than subpar. Cheese sauce had no flavor and chips were nothing more than store bought tortilla chips. Ordered a bowl of loaded potato soup as my main course since we went with a heavy appetizer. Soup had no flavor except grease. Uncertain where the grease was coming from, but you could even see it separating from the soup base. Not as great of an experience as we were hoping for as this restaurant came recommended to us as a must try.

    Our server seemed very rushed and after our order was placed she was nowhere to be found. The tables near us had the same issue. The host interacted more with the customers than she did. When she finally brought us our checks she took 30 min to bring our cards back to the table. The atmosphere and food was fantastic. The waitress needs to be better.
