User Rating: 1 out of 5 stars

I was in the restaurant and found the tip of a latex glove in my meal. I was offered nothing because of this. My meal of course I didn't have to pay for because of course I didn't eat it. My company and I ended up paying for his meal and both drinks.

I couldn't make up my mind on whether or not I really wanted to go. The menu looked so good, and was finally talked into it by the spouse.
The place was very clean, and the booths could seat 6, or possibly 8 if you were really skinny, they were that wide. Overall there was quite a bit of seating, and we did not have to wait for a table when we arrived.
The menu is just as described on their website.
The hostess was very friendly. Our server, Chastity, was top notch. She made several passes by our table without disturbing our conversation or meal to drop of a fresh Coke. She was very observant and great at anticipating our needs without being intrusive. She made one pass just to apologize to my son, who she noticed was struggling to get the ketchup out of the bottle, for the safety seal still being under the ketchup lid, which made us all laugh.She made just enough stops to make sure that everything was okay. I give HER 5 stars! Excellent service, and for that, we thank you!
The food, honestly, to use was just "okay". We have just returned from living in New Mexico, so we expected a little more flavor. One of us had hot boneless chicken fingers, and the only comment was, "They were hot, but had no flavor." The $10.99 order of ribs was considerably smaller than we'd anticipated. Two sons were very disappointed with this, but had no complaints about the flavor or texture. The fries were very good, and even though they said "seasoned" (which automatically makes me shudder and think of Rally's fries), they weren't really seasoned and were very good. I had the Chicken Chop Salad with crispy chicken. I did enjoy this, and the chipotle ranch was good. However, I can't think of anything spectacular about it to make it worth the $8.99 menu price. I also ordered a $2.99 side of mac and cheese. When it arrived, I wanted to send it back. The bowl was small and the amount of food in it ever smaller, I could have almost fit every noodle in the palm of one cupped hand. The sauce was thin and not very flavorful. The food all came to our table fresh and hot, and in a reasonable amount of time for being just after noon on a Friday.
The prices here are a bit on the steep side for a more casual joint, which will make me think a great deal before returning here.
The total for our visit was $63 plus change (excluding tip) for four meals and drinks, a side of mac and cheese, and one dessert (the partaker of this ice cream & strawberry dessert just raved about how good it was.)
Honestly, I think we should have made a drive to Chili's. The food is much better and you get a little more... for about the same prices.
To sum it up, if the food were as great as the service, this place would be worth every penny!
