    We had reservations for 5 people at 12:15 for my birthday today and were sat at a high top table quickly. Our server cane over to get drink order a couple of minutes later and after that we barely saw her. Someone else brought a couple of drinks then she brought the rest. About 15 minutes later she comes back and asks if we want to order appetizers. We order the cheese curds (amazing) and calamari (tough/chewy) About 20 minutes after we get our appetizers. About 30 minutes later we had to get a manager to order our meals. We order cheeseburger (really good), the brunch burger with the egg (loved that) a salad (good), the ahi poke bowl (good), and I had the Irish whisky French toast (too crispy and not sure what happened to the whisky, but okay.) So we only got one refill of drinks (non alcoholic) and the server was always missing. I think they had her on outside tables and inside tables. I’m not sure of this was her idea or someone else’s but it is a terrible idea!!!! I have been a server and to properly provide good service you have to have eyes on your tables. If you are going in and out you cannot give all your tables your attention. I’m undecided if I will return to this place as it was terrible service but the food was good. Maybe they were just having a tough day.

    We had a great time! The food was good and the service was fantastic. The only problem we had was finding a parking space. If they had valet parking Iwould go there more often!

    We really like the food and the service is always great! Parking really is stressful but still worth the hassle.
