We came for the Friday fish fry and were greeted right away, setting a positive tone. However, after being seated, we waited quite a while before our drink order was taken, and our waiter forgot the lemon we requested—no big deal, but it was a little disappointing.

Once we placed our orders, our food arrived promptly. My baked cod was a mixed bag; one piece was flavorful while the other was quite dry and lacking seasoning. My husband described his fish fry as okay—not his favorite, but tolerable.

However, our server's absence became increasingly noticeable. He didn’t check on us after taking our order , (the other staff delivered our meals). He seemed to focus on other tables, even as we waited for refills, tartar sauce (we grabbed it ourselves from other table) and our plates to be cleared. It almost felt purposeful that he was skipping over us. He was warm and friendly with other tables, the total opposite that he had been with us.

After we finally sought out the hostess and asked to speak to and manager and request our check. I mentioned the lack of service, she sent our waiter back over. While he was polite when we addressed our concerns, he didn’t apologize for the oversight.

Ultimately, I wanted to speak with a manager to discuss our experience, but the hostess informed me that she preferred to handle it directly. This approach felt dismissive, as our poor service significantly influenced our impression.

While we were willing to give the restaurant another chance for burgers or different entrees, the combination of mediocre food and inattentive service left us unsure about returning. Overall, it was a disappointing experience that overshadowed the potential for a great evening out.
