I don't know what it is but she seems angry or passive aggressive every time I'm there. She visibly caters to her regulars or possibly her husband because it is hard to get her attention or service from her when she is talking to them the whole time. I dine alone but that doesn't mean I do not deserve proper attention as well, especially how well I typically tip. Not to mention I can smell weed from across the bar on her. I have been happy taking my money elsewhere.

The waffle portion was good at least.The 4 main TVs in the center of the restaurant were all black, likely powered off. The one in the corner was on at least. The lighting in the right is now a high temperature of 7k or 8k, this gives too much blue tint and not the nice orange ambience I would expect.

Not once did our waitress or did the manager walk around and say anything about the wait.

Took longer then normal for the food to get out to our table but we showed up right at the busiest dinner hour so I felt like that was to be expected. Food was great, waiter was great. Would go again

I used to LOVE their Doc style wings but what I got this time was nothing like what theyused to be! The fact that they still advertise these tiny wings as ?JUMBO? and charge $1.80 per tiny wing is completelyunacceptable. To make it worse, they are supposed to be Doc style but as you can see from the picture, they are clearly notcoated well and didn?t have hardly any flavor. When I mentioned it to the on duty night manager, he said what do I want them todo, the box is labeled jumbo?!?! They did give me a few extra wings, to ?make up for it? but this shouldn?t be the norm. Theyneed to go back to weighing them so you get a consistent amount for all the money you pay. Another issue was, I asked for asmall sample of a few flavors so I can see if I liked them, I didn?t like them, but the waitress brought cups of each and I toldher I just wanted to try them but she said that?s ok. When I got the bill, I was charged $0.50 for each of those tastes, whichwere all discarded, minus the little dab I tasted. Unfortunately, this is the last time I will be coming here on my visits, I?lljust have to find a new wing spot. I would not recommend them under current ownership/leadership!!
