"The venue is nice, fairly modern. There are a lot of different areas to sit in, which is fun. We made a reservation, but didn't specify an area. The only place I'd recommend NOT to sit, is where we were placed: right next to the giant indoor water wheel. It was so loud we couldn't hear each other talk, and our waitress couldn't hear us when ordering. We went on a Saturday night for a birthday dinner date night. We made a reservation a week in advance, were sat right away when we arrived (hostess was very friendly), but were not visited by the waitress for over 15 minutes at which point she let us know they were running very slowly due to low staffing. Even though we were ready to order drinks and dinner, she said she'd be back to take our orders. We waited for another 10 minutes, placed our orders, and it took about 20 minutes to get our mixed drinks. I completely understand the staffing shortage right now, but if that is really why the service was slow, they shouldn't take as many reservations. The server was very friendly, but mentioned the staffing/workload too often, which made it a little awkward.Despite the very slow service, the cocktails and food were great. The bread was delicious and calamari app special was excellent. My boyfriend loved his pecan crusted cod. I got the chicken Atlantis, which was probably the largest helping size I've ever had. The seafood on it was great. We decided not to get dessert because by the time we'd finished dinner, it had been almost 2.5hrs, plus we were really full.I'd recommend coming here if it's during a less busy day of the week/time of day, or if you don't mind a lengthy stay. I don't usually mind an extended dinner/slower service because it gives me time to digest, but this was just a little too slow for me, especially being unable to have a conversation. I also don't usually complain about slow service in reviews because I know everyone is dealing with staffing shortages, but this was just too slow not to mention and could be mitigated by limiting the amount of guests at once."

"My family of seven made reservations for 12/1/2024 looking forward to going to this restaurant on New Year’s Day. We planned the day celebrating around our reservations as we have looked forward to dining here for a very long time. What brought us to the restaurant was the videos of a fun atmosphere with dancing, music and great food. We did see several poor reviews for this location but hoped they had corrected the issues that were complained about. When we arrive we waited a very long time for the hostess to seat us (it appeared to have two hosts staffed at the time). As we walked to our table I noticed several of the guests packed in together back to back at the tables and several had not been served drinks (several sections were empty, so I did not understand at first why we were all stacked in one section). We also walked past the bar and noticed several cleaning sprays, cleaning bottles and dirty rags placed all over the bar next to dirty dishes and drinks waiting to be served. Also, along the back of wall several of the TV’s were not working and the floor was dirty. We sat at the table for 15/20 minutes before we were handed water (of which all but one of my party was given water). My daughter did not get water nor was asked. I turned to the table behind me and asked if they had been given the opportunity to give a drink order (as they had been sat several minutes before us) and with frustration they said no. We waited an additional 10 minutes and I walked up to the hostess and asked if they only had one server working at lunch time on New Year’s Day. She responded with “yes, sorry”. After sitting for total of 30 minutes we decided to leave and walk across the street and eat at Dicks Last Resort. We only were served 6 out of 7 glasses of water and had no conversations with the server except thanking him for a glass of water. No one checked on the table, asked why we were leaving, tried to help, offered to take our order, offered wate"
