This was my first experience, and it was not a great one.. The only good experience I had here was the wings being tasty even though mine were served cold.. The service is where my experience completely fell apart from start to finish (and it wasn’t that busy when we got there). It started off with us waiting almost 10 minutes standing up front with no one acknowledging us to get seated (which, by itself is okay. It happens. But everything after that followed suit). Our server served us our waters and then left us for about 30 minutes to figure out what we wanted to eat/drink. After running out of my water and pop, our server continually ignored our empty drinks (even after we had asked for a refill). I had to continually ask for refills when she checked in asking if everything was okay. She forgot the said drinks multiple times. Our food eventually came out (and one of our friends food was forgotten for another 10 minutes and we had to say something), and the entire time we had our food, our drinks were empty. We had asked for honey mustard sauce with our wings when we had ordered, but she forgot to bring it out. When she later brought it out, it fell off her platter and on the floor. This happens, and is no big deal. Except 15 minutes later, when our food was finished, she asked if I still wanted it. And I said it was alright. Well, I stepped away for a second around the honey mustard sauce that was still all over the ground to use the restroom. My wife paid the bill without looking to see that she still charged us for the sauce that was all over the ground (and not cleaned up for the entire time we were there). We had to make sure not to step in it whenever we moved I don’t think I’ll be coming back..

Arrived at 845 on a Friday. The restaurant/bar area was about 1/3 full. We were seated right away. Our waitress was Ana. I ordered the $3 beer special (see photo) but was told I could only get a $4 beer. When I inquired further, she checked with the manager and, after about 5-10 minutes, brought me the beer. Ana began to take our order but realized she didn't have her paper/pen. She left/came back a few seconds later and we ordered an appetizer and three burgers. We sat patiently as I finished my beer and one of my sons finished his water. We waited about 15 minutes before Ana came back. She did walk by our table 2 or 3 times during the 15 minutes, but never checked with us. There we 4-6 people at the hostess desk for most of the night, including 2-3 people I assume were managers, but they did not check with any customers. So I eventually ordered another drink, and after a few more minutes our food came out. Not sure what happened to our appetizer but it never came. I didn't say anything to the waitress and was waiting to see if it showed up on the bill. It did not. The food was great but the service was horrible. Not sure I would come back. Horrible service seems to be the new normal at most restaurants. A big thank you to the trophy generation!!

The food is great! The drinks are good. The three female bartenders that seemed to want me to hurry and leave, I could have done without. One strawberry mojito down. One fish taco meal placed in front of me (Sooo goood). Immediately followed by my receipt. 🤔 I was asked if I wanted another drink or water. Emphasis on water. I declined and ordered a tequila lemonade. Then as I’m eating, another female bartender places two waters and asks if I want one. (Huh?). When I decline she tells the patron next to me that he has another water. When a couple decides to sit i hear yet another female bartender say “you can sit here”. To which I replied “but not too long. They only like the drinkers. Not the eaters and drinkers.” And I laughed. Then the couple decides to sit there and eat. (That warmed my heart) then I hear another gentleman to the other side say “we might as well sit here and eat”. (Which made me LOL). I don’t know that I’ve experienced a more unwelcoming reception. While the food is excellent the hard working, single moms who just want a night to themselves, shouldn’t be rushed out of their PAYING seat. While I’m aware I’m not wearing a label, I definitely was still a paying customer. Oh, and I DEFINITELY left a $0.05 tip. Thanks for the service ladies! *cheers*

Had dinner there to celebrate my friends graduation. The wait times for everything were very long, salads came out with the main meals and meal originally came out in a to-go package for some reason. Almost everyone’s order was incorrect in some way. Would not have been upset and chalked it up to them being busy/understaffed but then the server added an open percentage 20% fee to each of our bills that we didn’t notice until after we left. (the menu states a policy of 18% automatic gratuity for parties if 8 or more, we had a party of only 7) After my tip and the semi hidden 20% fee on the bill, I ended up paying $60 for a sandwich, salad and soda. I contacted the Raddison about the situation and added 20% fee and got no response. Attaching a photo of my friends receipt because I didn’t keep mine when I left.
