"UPDATE Was personally contacted regarding my unpleasant visit (see below), by ownership via messenger and phone. I received sincere apologies and was graciously invited back. Reserved table and all. We were treated very well and everything was GREAT. Overall this experience is one out of many where the customer is treated with value and I can't thank you all enough. To add, this visit happened to also be my mate's birthday and we had a great time thanks to the staff at The Light Horse. See you guys sometime soon!! Original Review My girlfriend and I tried The Light Horse recently, during restaurant week 2022. Nice setup and things were going smooth...until a hair was found in the appetizer. Bothered by that I mentioned it to the server and he told the bartender. I was more disturbed that I didn't notice immediately. I was told no manager was available and the not much could be done at the moment. At that time the bartender offered to refill our mixed drinks...I said that's fine. We go on to continue our dinner and dessert. I tried the cheesecake. After 1-2 bites I look close....and another hair was found. I stopped immediately and called the bartender, who was serving us at the time. He apologized and offered contact info so that I could speak with an owner or manager. He brought the bill then explaining that only 1 of the 2 drink refills he offered would be on the house. I didn't request it...he offered when the 1st hair was found...to then charge me for it. I sent a message via FB chat and I called a few times only to be hung up on every time. Not such a good time but I believe it will get better. Hopefully someone calls me soon. I paid my bill though I thoroughly was disappointed and dissatisfied."

"My in-laws were in town from Texas and was hungry after flying all day. I typically get okay food here and wanted somewhere close to home since it was 7 and we have a toddler. This was the first time they actually found my name and checked us in on opentable. We were however told that we would need to wait because we had five people ahead of us. Again, what is the purpose of making a reservation if you have to wait 20-60 minutes. This has happened in the past. Our waitress Carol was SUPER SUPER AMAZING. This was no fault to her. This was the kitchen. We were patient and even my toddler who isn’t even two yet was well behaved. Received our appetizer it looked like a pile of BLAH. We had the Ahi Poke, it literally looked like something pre-made and yanked out the fridge. Waited awhile, an hour went by after getting our appetizer. Three of us received our dishes. Mine and my mother in laws was cold...all of it. How is that when our plates were hot? My husbands burger was hot, his fries super cold. Father in laws sandwich he did the roast beef dip, fries hot sandwich looked like it had been sitting for awhile and was really dry. Daughters Mac n cheese which why would you make a kids dish last...was actually hot and okay. Carol was even kind enough to bring her some fruit and a knot. She asked if we would like something else, we at first wanted to know the eta...said it would take another 20-30 minutes. So she asked if we would like a soup or salad. We both got soups, one got clam chowder, I got broccoli and cheese. Hers was okay, mine looked soooo gross!!! I’ve never seen brown broccoli cheese...over cooked perhaps? Those we had to wait for awhile as well. We picked those because by the time all this was going on, we were ready to just go. She was kind and brought us some bazookies, those were good but we really just wanted to go but she insisted. Like I said, our waitress was amazing! The cook staff needs or needed a lot of help!"
