   The service was VERY VERY slow. We waited 45 minutes before even getting our salads then about the same amount of time after that getting our meal. One of the people that I was with did not get her meal with the rest of the table. They offered no explanation other than “it will be out soon”. After everyone else was completely through eating they brought hers but she refused the meal. The food that the rest of us had was good but we won’t be back.

   We were looking for a nice steakhouse to meet family from N AL & B’ham for a celebratory dinner. Wissota had good reviews & we made reservations. We headed up early to have drinks prior to dinner. We did have a little trouble finding the restaurant - it is in the Coblestone hotel - and drove past before we saw the small sign. Once we arrived, we sat at the bar waiting for others to arrive. Emma took care of us, told us about menu items and made a fabulous martini. For dinner we moved to the dining room & Jacob took care of us. We started with charcuterie and bone marrow. The bone marrow is served with pickled onions & chimichurri on the side. So you can dress it to your taste. I love the marrow! From there, we all wanted steaks! We had the filet, ribeye & porterhouse. All were seasoned great and cooked to the requested temps. Sides are served family style (for two). We had the whipped potatoes and asparagus. Both were wonderful. The Bday boy even got carrot cake for dessert. Great hidden gem in Cullman.

   We were the only table and the slowest service, and the food truck hadn’t come so they were out of a lot of items. But has a cool vibe, and the food was good.

   Meat is advertised as top shelf aged beef and priced as such. My wife’s and my cuts were not equivalent to a a Walmart cut. We were greatly disappointed and will not be going back. Over $200 spent and the appetizers were the best part of the meal.

   We had hoped for a great experience based on some of the reviews and the pictures provided on Open Table. However, it was underwhelming at best. Ordered the fried olives and fried goat cheese as appetizers- the food was like warm and very average at best. I also ordered the Smokey Bacon Mule from the bar, something different that I thought might be fun…. It was a complete disappointment, actual bacon in the drink and no alcohol taste. For the main course, we ordered the crusted Brussel Sprouts and the 14oz (or 12oz) ribeye, cooked medium rare. The food came out at one time—as there was an apparent al—cart style menu. The sprouts were like warm, the crusted cheese was hard and looked like it had been sitting for a time before they were served. The steak was ordered with caramelized onions—again, an additional charge. It was VERY undercooked, cool and had no taste. The tables had no salt and pepper , I can only assume there would have been a separate charge for that as well. The prices were ridiculously expensive for the service and quality of the food. If you are looking for an upscale experience, please, come to Huntsville or go to Birmingham. This is an overpriced, lack or quality dining experience that will leave you underwhelmed, hungry with a large dent to your budget.

   Visited for our 25th Anniversary yesterday. Overall the visit was underwhelming. The temperature in the restaurant was uncomfortably cold. The few other diners in the dining room were quite loud. The wait staff was nice but inattentive. The wait before ordering and between our courses (drinks, appetizer, salads, and entrees) was awkwardly long. The charcuterie board was terrific but was missing the honeycomb mentioned in the menu description. The waitress did not come back to check on us for us to mention it was missing. The salads were good but the wedge needed more dressing and salt & pepper... again, the waitress didn't come back for us to ask for some. Meanwhile, our water glasses were empty. Finally, when the entrees were delivered. the Sea Bass was cold and not seasoned. The sides were delivered room temperature at best. Charcuterie Board, Wedge Salad, Burrata Salad, NY Strip, Sea Bass, Blue Cheese Risotto, Brussel Sprouts: just under $200. While I can't pinpoint one specific reason why we won't go back, I'd say if you consider price, ambiance, service and taste, it just doesn't add up. It wasn't special enough.

   Some meals were a bit salty, but overall it was a great dining experience. Holden, our server, was incredible. He was great with his service.

    Happy Hour drinks menu is great as you can get chance to try a flight of beers before picking a favorite
