    It was a great date night out! I had only been to the one in Colorado before, and this one was great as well! Service was incredibly friendly! They made us a whole dip that we later found out had gluten, and they made us a whole new dip free of charge and insisted they take care of it. Great tasting food, great atmosphere, and a great experience.

    What is usually a long meal became an excessively long meal of three hours plus. It was a 45 minutes before we had any food.

    Was not impressed. The service acted like we shouldn’t have came in. Service was terrible. Very upset we came here for our anniversary.

    My reservation was at 8:15. We got seated at about that time but waited 25 minutes at the table and no waiter/waitress would come to take our order. No menus or even a glass of water. I went to the hostess to ask if she could send somebody to take our order and she said “somebody will come” and proceeded to move on with her night without doing anything about what I said. At that point my wife and I just stood up and left. I was actually expecting a good experience and meal but with this kind of customer service, it’s imposible to have a good evening.

    Celebrating our 27 anniversary. Server was awesome, food was amazing, but a little loud due to a birthday party that was going one. That won’t keep me from going back though.

    It was a great experience as usual, however, they were out of a lot of things. I got the Pacific Rim and they didn’t have the tuna, they were out of a lot of craft beers, and when we ordered our chocolate, the waiter wasn’t sure if they had peanut butter. Fortunately, they did have the peanut butter but it just seemed like they were out of a lot of different things.
