The food was good but service was so slow we almost didn't get to the show on time. Thought it was just a one time thing so we came back for lunch the following day with family that had just gotten off the ferry. The same thing happened again waiting over an hour for lunch, maybe another cook in the kitchen might solve this problem. While I'm venting think about a little redecorating the torn material on the booths are a disaster.

I The spaghetti was warm and extremely dry (like there was no sauce or anything on the pasta same with the broccoli. The broccoli was barely cooked too. The chicken was okay but didn't have any taste nor any lemon sauce. I asked for some butter or something to put on spaghetti and they brought Two little packets of butter. I told them everything was dry and had ZERO taste. I barely touched my food. It is a shame they charged me for my meal. Are they that desperate for money??? Someone else at my table ordered the same only no pasta w veggies and she felt the same (veggies under cooked and chicken has no taste) They then brought over a very small serving of the franchaise sauce which wasn't even hot! Its a no go for me!!! Perhaps if they would have taken my meal off the bill like most other restaurants would have done. I waited to speak with the waitress after she dropped the check but she never returned to our table. We just paid it and left and Will not be back!!

Their maple bacon wings won a best wings award so I had to put them to the test and they passed with flying colors. Great wings and great beer on Happy Hour specials!!!!

I’m a server myself and there are times where I have to run the restaurant myself so I understand, but there was only oneother table and another leaving and she treated us as her last care in the world. When she brought our appetizer over we put inanother appetizer and by the time the second one was done she had just brought over silverware and plates and still hadn’ttaken our dinner order. We were sitting there with our first appetizer for around 10 minutes no plates no silverware. We hadfinished eating and I got up to get a menu myself passing our server because when I had asked her for silverware before, Inoticed she rolled her eyes and I didn’t appreciate that. I’m not sure if she was profiling us because of our age which Ithink is pretty disgusting we are 19 and very respectful. We go to many fine dining restaurants and are constantly coming downport and we’ve never experienced this condescending service. We had finally ordered our food way after finishing our appetizerand it came almost 30 minutes later. Our check came to over $75 and I feel like for the price you expect decent service. Shedidn’t care nor was she apologetic for the way she acted. Again the food was great we plan on coming back we just hope fordifferent service. Our servers name was Sandra.
