I started with the spicy popcorn shrimp as an appetizer, which turned out to be more sweet than spicy, but it was really delicious. The riblets for the main course were hearty and perfectly cooked—tender and not tough at all. The only downside was the coleslaw, which many restaurants seem to prepare poorly. We concluded our meal with the Dulce De Leche cheesecake, which was definitely a hit. I'm pleased to see the improvements, and I hope the restaurant continues to uphold this higher standard, as competition is fierce. Because of this positive change, I’ve updated my rating to four stars.

I 'm not sure if that was the reason it was so laid back but it was none the less.Our server Cheryl C was wonderful! Pleasant, fun with the kids, attentive, got us in and out as best she could (as she knew we didn 't have a ton of time to sit around), and was the highlight of our visit.The food on the other hand was a real let down. kids chicken bites (actually fingers) and fries were good, kids pizza and apple sauce was ok as the pizza crust was more like bread (as it was even identified by my 6 yr old) but whatever...it was edible and not offensive. The oriental (very very dated term) chicken wrap was decent enough but my chicken ranch sandwich was horrendous. It tasted like fish as it was cooked in the same fryer as their fish sandwich 's halibut. Loaded with fresh tomato and lettuce etc.? You bet but the chicken (a really thin piece in dark greasy batter) tasted just like fish from a fish and chips and as such was inedible.It was happily taken off the order but I doubt it was a problem that was taken seriously as I was told "oh, really? I haven 't heard that before. "Bottom line, the place was clean and friendly but don 't expect much from this place food wise!

At first the manager wasn’t sure they would be able to accommodate us but called in a reinforcement for that night and happily took our party. When we showed up, they were well prepared for us, handled our meals and drinks with ease, and we had no problems! Everyone enjoyed the food and speed of service would highly recommend!!
