We waited over 15 minutes for menus, an hour for our food and although we were a group of only 3 they apparently lost my order for Mac and cheese. While this kind of thing happens the waitress told us she would check on my order when she brought the other two items out but another 10+ minutes passed and we were told nothing. She finally said she would go check again and then told us my order was lost. I don't understand how she didn't realize it was lost the first time she said she would check. She was very kind and apologetic and offered a free item but by that point the other two people I was with had finished eating already. We accepted an order of pretzel sticks and asked for the bill. It took another 20ish minutes to get the bill and we just left without the pretzel sticks. The most frustrating part was that a table who ordered after us got my exact same order of mac and cheese right after I was told they didn't have time to make my order anymore. We also overheard an awkward argument between our waitress and the kitchen staff about the volume of the music and the table next to us also had issues with their order. I can't comment on the food other than the store bought chips I stole off my husband's plate because I didn't get to try any other food. They at least didn't charge us for the food we didn't get. Maybe we just came on an off night but don't think we'll...

This was my first visit to Call of the Canyon, which I tried out with my daughter on a visit to nearby BGSU. 11:30 on a Saturday and it wasn't too busy,

The Fajita Mac and Cheese with gluten free penne was excellent. Cheddar cheese on top with a thick white sauce underneath is a great combination.

The atmosphere and service was good. It's not a fancy restaurant, but is functional and clean - perfect for a college town. Service was a bit leisurely, with the primary factor being the food preparation taking a bit longer than I expected.

We definitely would visit this restaurant again and recommend it as a great option over fast food or a...
