"The other reviews are right. We went on a weeknight and it was pretty full. The service is slow from the kitchen and the servers dont know the menu or the bar list. I get that there are 150 kinds of whiskey and scotch on the menu but he didn 't know a lot about it. The food is so so. The spinach ravioli was overcooked and mushy and drowning in sauce. It was too bad, because they used fresh spinach in there and the sauce had a good flavor. The shepards pie came out with a pasty lump of potatoes on top and the french onion soup had barely melted cheese on it. I guess the cooks never heard of broiling to brown the top of things. Again, the flavor was pretty good, but the presentation and finishing touches left a lot to be desired. We asked if there were any scotch or whiskey liquors on the menu. The waiter, of course, did not know, but asked. The answer, no. Really? There are a ton of these things on the market so that was surprising considering this is there differentiator. Fine. I asked if they had decaf coffee. The answer we only have caffeinated. Last week, we had only decaf!! So I asked for any kind of decaf/herbal tea. He brought me two versions of "lightly caffeinated tea! I 'm a tea drinker and I have never heard of this. Odd thing for a bar to have when they dont even have chamomille. Not sure who is ordering supplies, but clearly they need to pull it together. In general however, I liked the place. It fits big groups, wasn 't too too loud and had a fun vibe. The menu was broad enough and the whiskey/scotch selection rocked. I feel like they could make some minor changes, train the staff better and have a real winner."

"Got our food to go. Food we got was great but found that a few items were missing. When we finally noticed I called right away. Our server answered and remembered that she had forgotten our dessert. Unfortunately that wasn't the only thing missing. We ordered the smoked meat sampler and also ordered an extra half pound of smoked brisket. Not only were we missing our dessert but also the extra half pound of brisket. Our server said she would have to connect us with someone who could help us. She got on the line and said we were never changed for our desert. If I go by the price of the sampler and the half pound of brisket then we paid for the desert!! Luckily she asked if we could come then or leave a message for the people on staff tomorrow. I didn't want to go but Patty said she would go so she went and picked it up. Update: well, had to change the review again after my wife got home. It seems that they gave us our dessert but didn't correct the missing brisket issue!!! After spending over $100.00 you would think that they would fix the problem but apparently they would just rather think of us as liars and only fix the dessert problem rather than take care of $15.00 worth of missing meat!! This is not the way to keep customers happy. I have never had a problem until today and after today will probably never go back!! Really sad since I have never complained about this place in the times that we've been there until now. I think it shows how much they care about correcting the situation. In these times with everything going on you would think that they would want to keep every customer happy!! No one can afford to lose customers in this economy!! Too bad because I really like their food!!"
