The waitresses were not accommodating. My food did not come out as I ordered it and they were not willing to bring my correct order.

The restaurant was pretty busy but we were seated quickly and ordered our drinks. Our waitress had six tables that were ordering or getting their food. She was amazing. She was quick getting our dinner order, bringing our salads and the entree was served just as we finished our salads. In addition to her great service, it was the best meal I have eaten there. YUM!~

Food was very good. Service was not so good. Rushed and ignored. This was a friend's night out dinner. We were brought all of the food almost at once. Asked if we wanted the check before we finished eating and then ignored (no fill ups of coffee or water) for the next hour as we sat and talked.
