"What an absolutely horrible experience. We 've lived in town here for many years and have gone here routinely. Today we had a miserable experience because a waitress became overwhelmed with the crowd and then treated us with total disrespect. We ordered. We waited. She brought us drinks and the soda machine was full obviously messed up because the Diet Coke tasted like carbonated water. I tried for 20 mins to get her attention and she ignored us. Then, 42 minutes after we ordered, I walked over to the counter and simply asked our waitress if she knew how much longer it would be. This is when things went downhill. She replied I have no idea and it 's not my job to know that it 's the kitchens . Wow. I simply asked if she could check and she got very snippy saying sit was really busy. She walked over to the kitchen and all I heard coming out of the kitchen was a flurry of F-bombs and S-granades! Then, she picked up a salad and walked by me without looking at me and muttered salmon will be done shortly . She delivered the salad to my wife at the table and didn 't say anything and shot her a filthy look. She just walked away without deliver any utensils or responding to my wife 's request for some. She abruptly walked by me and I asked if I could chat with the manager and she said we don 't have one and walked away. Then I asked her again and she pointed me to another person in the restaurant. When I went to the other person, who was actually quite nice, she said that she wasn 't the manager but one would be back later in the afternoon. The original waitress started griping to me about how slammed they were and how I don 't understand her job. Her filthy looks and her attitude drove me to go back to my table and get my wife and 2 kids and leave. I said to the other waitress ti give me my check for the soda, iced tea, and the salad and she told me it was fine and we should leave if we want to. We left. What a waste. What a horrible experience at a place that usually does a good job. I 've met the manager/owner before and she is very very nice. The issue is with waitstaff and how obnoxious they have been. The person today was ruder to me than anyone has been in many years."
