"I walked in on around 8:30 on a Monday morning, presumably after the morning rush had cleared. They were busy getting lunch ready but acknowledged my presence and were patient in taking my order. The food was fast, hot, good and reasonably priced and a slam dunk choice over the local hotel restaurants. Plenty of comfortable dining room seating with large tv that wasn't too loud or offensive. Now for the cons. Finding the place. Head toward where Delta planes are taking off. It's a totally nondescript office building where you'd never guess there's a restaurant. There are two high tension power line poles at the end of the road turn left into the 2nd parking lot when you see those. Enter the main doors and take the slow elevators or better yet, turn to your left and walk down one flight of stairs. The relatively unappealing office building opens up to a pleasant dining space. Tips: placing your order online seems easy. I started to do this but changed my mind because I wanted the in person experience. No issues with online ordering. I didn't notice a menu until I got all the way into the restaurant. It would be nice to have one on at the door. The ordering process isn't obvious unless someone is in line in front of you. You tell the cashier at the end what you want, you get a slip, and you take that slip to another cashier behind you to pay. That's not obvious. I wasn't sure how I was supposed to get my food, so I sat in the dining room and an employee kindly brought me my order, but I got the feeling I was supposed to wait for it before going to sit down. Overall, very good. Would have given 5 stars if the process finding the place, ordering was easier. Prices are fair, food quality excellent, service good and reasonably swift. Recommended!"

"What an ordeal! My good buddy and I were looking forward to sitting at the bar for a drink and an order of raw Oysters. I had been there a few weeks before and greatly enjoyed them. On the way we called to see that if they indeed had Oysters but were surprised with the responce asking if we had reservations. Although we told her we would sit at the bar, she all but said NOT TO COME, because there was no room. This is a place that has most of there early business from the Nick Stoner Golf Course, as it is called the 19th Hole. Knowing this we pressed on as it was only a little after 5 PM and expected that room would open up when the golfers left. And we were right. Upon sitting, there was a definite air of indifference from the bartender , Trystan. She apparently was the same one my friend had spoken to on the phone. (She obviously did not wish to work for her pay, so the fewer people she had to serve the better for her. After 20 or 30 minutes she finally took our orders, a gin and tonic for me, tonic for him, and our anticipated two dozen raw Oysters. After asking if we wanted them fried or raw, she went on to say that the kitchen was very busy so, if we wanted anything else we should also order it then, but only from the appetizer menu, (of which there were several items not available. Strange. Therefore we also ordered a basket of homemade potato chips and the bacon wrapped scallops (both of which were pretty good, by the way, except the chips needed salt . Much as I was afraid of, both the chips and Scallops came in a few minutes. But no Oysters. In fact a server came out to the bartender shortly later to tell her not to order Oysters from the bar. Parties on our left and right were served their Oysters, but we waited. An hour later I asked what happened to our order. She went back to the kitchen and returned with our Oysters that were swimming in melted ice, but worse, they were covered with a minuet sauce (vinegar and shallots , when we objected she said that 's how the kitchen made it and we should have known. Huh, when was that told us, I said to her. I then told her to take these back and deliver what we ordered. She became very defensive AND abusive saying, she doesn 't take orders from a GrandPa and further used every four letter expletive from the gutter to describe just how she felt. I asked to see the Owner and she brought over her lawyer friend instead. We paid for what we ate and drank and left. She told us don 't come back . Not likely, but then again I may want Oysters again."
