"I would have easily given this place 5 stars based on their food. However, the service and pricing were completely ridiculous. We were seated, and an older couple came in after we sat. I watched the owner point to a table without looking at them, and even though the woman said something twice he ignored her and kept walking. Not exactly a way to get return business! The look on her face said it all. After we placed our order (and the order was read back twice), the waitress brought our appetizers, but no plates to put anything on. Finally got some after asking, but then the older couple asked for a condiment, and the female owner literally snapped her fingers and pointed to the older couples table. Which the whole restaurant saw. Extremely unprofessional considering that she could have helped them, but instead went into another part of the restaurant and sat down. The waitress was the only one working and there were a handful of tables so she was super busy and definitely inexperienced. Our food came, and the waitress never cleared the table and then told us the kitchen made a mistake on my daughter's eggs. She wanted overmedium, but they were scrambled. She told us we'd have to pay extra for new eggs and the toast that she ordered. She had a complete meltdown about it, but she kept looking at the owner in a panic. That tells me he is not very business savvy and cares more about money than customers. What policy says that a customer should pay for your mistake? Also, why is your policy that if someone wants toast instead of pancakes, they have to pay $4?? I suggest taking a business class and retraining your staff unless you don't want to stay in business. I'm willing to pay for a good experience, but $100 for what we got was not worth it. Your food is good, but your lack of customer service, high prices, and business practices are certainly in need of an overhaul!"

"TLDR; DO NOT GO HERE!It doesn’t matter if you have to drive hours more. Do it.I can’t possibly describe the level of poor management, customer service and interpersonal skills encountered here. Simply unbelievable.I came to get a little practice along my road trip. That was not possible. DO NOT GO HEREThe bowling: the lanes were dirty and had no oil. It was 9am, the heads had visible ball marks, hair and dirt even with it in “cosmic bowling” lighting. I approached the counter to ask if they knew the lanes had no oil and they replied that they were oiled last night. I told them that the machine might be broken or nozzles clogged but whatever the case, there was no oil. They wouldn’t hear it.Let me explain: I brought 6 balls knowing I might face any kind of condition and a really used condition would have been fine. There was NO CONDITION. Lofting the left gutter and targeting ANYWHERE the ball would overhook and go in the left gutter. The only playable ball was plastic between 5th and 6th arrow and keeping it flat. It was still reading in the first 15ft, but could at least stay on the lanes.The management didn’t care to hear it or see it. Just kept claiming that it was oiled. Unwilling to have even the shortest conversation with me, I abandoned the hope of a meaningful practice and tried to close out.The catch: I used my credit card. I was not warned up front, but you must spend at least $10 to use a card and they’re unapologetic about their lanes, their attitudes or their greed. So, I paid $10 to be treated rudely, given an unplayable condition and sent on my way. It’s possible that there’s a sign somewhere… maybe dozens of signs… but every patron before me in line was told the same thing and to a man everyone was aghast at the minimum. “That’ll be $3. There’s a $10 minimum.” I just told them to charge me $10 and that was FINE WITH THEM.This place needs to be torn down or bought and the employees let go. This situation is unbelievable.In short: DO NOT GO HERE."
