  I am not usually one to write a bad review but..... I took my kids there tonight for dinner. After seeing the prices compared to the atmosphere I almost walked out. The place wasn't busy. Half a bar full of people shaking dice and 3 tables with people at them. We waited at the front desk to be seated for which felt like an uncomfortable amount of time. We almost sat ourselves thinking that may be their policy. Finally the bartender came out and seated us after he was done shaking dice. It took an unusual amount of time for the waitress to come and take a drink order, and it took an even longer amount to get our beverages. I asked what they had for red wines, she pointed to the folder and said the wines are in there. The wine list had names I had never seen and some I have, but I was shocked to see glass prices more than what I would pay for a bottle of that brand at a local liquor store. So I ordered from the "premium" selections and immediately regretted that when I tasted it. I ordered a second glass of something different. Even worse. She finally came around again to ask for our order and we mentioned we wanted an appetizer. Usually you ask for that when you deliver drinks or even during taking the drink order. It took almost 15 min for the appetizer to come out which isn't awful but still not good. It took almost 30 min after we were done with the appetizer to get our food. The kids were so full on bread and soda that they hardly ate anything. One child order the deep fried mac and cheese, a pathetic serving of what looked like 5 chicken nuggets atop some fries for $7. My son ordered the bacon cheeseburger from the adult menu for $10 which was supposed to be 8 oz but looked more like 4... 6 would be a stretch. I know what a half pound burger looks like. The bacon was burnt and the burger was well done even though he asked for med rare. There was no lettuce, onion, or tomato nor was any offered. The plate was loaded with fries that were warm at best. I ordered their robe eye and 1/4 rack of ribs that was $30. That was the biggest disappointment of all. The ribeye was barely a half inch thick (the orange wedge garnish was thicker than the steak). I ordered it medium rare, and it was shoe leather. I took two bites and I was done. The baked potato I asked to be loaded. It came with a plastic container of sour cream, no butter, no cheese, no bacon bits..... nothing. It was still wrapped in foil and it was obviously over cooked. The skin was chewy and tough. The ribs were laughable. My pinky finger was as long as the ribs and probably has more meat on them. The sauce actually weighed more than the ribs. And the sauce was a putrid sweet mess that tasted like sugar and ketchup. To top it all off as I was leaving, not a bye, thank you, or please come again.

  My Wife and I have been coming here for 10 years and the food is always great and Jay the bartender is Mr. Party. Ted and Elaine do a great job. Great place for a group party or event.
