We arrived on time for our reservation (11:30am). It took 10 min to be acknowledged by our server and 38 min from the time we ordered to when we got our food. Our waiter didn’t check on us once during that 38min. We had to get up and go ask someone to make sure our order was even submitted.

Our server was awesome! When we got there, we were a little bit early and the girl told us he had a 17 top that he had to take care of also and we said that’s fine. Will be patient. It’s like he wasn’t even gone, he took care of us, and everything went perfectly!

I've been coming here on Thursdays for Trivia a few times. The Trivia has always been fun. Last time I had the steak and root vegetables.The steak was really outstanding and for $41 is a really good value for filet mignon. The root vegetables were somewhat tasty but they come prepared with harissa which, I'm sorry to say, is too spicy for my wimpy spice tolerance. I also tried a few bites of peanut butter pie-yum. On a previous visit I enjoyed the grits with gravy. I think next time I will try the burger because it always looks great when other people get it.

Padres game day on a Monday. Very quiet , no happy hour as expected, but out of game day Pacifico beer special they have posted all over the restaurant. Ordered another light beer out of that too. Selection of premium beers small. Had appetizers which were very good but pricey. Left to find a place with better vibe for main course.
