Great food and atmosphere. Watch the planes take off and land was a bonus live music was excellent
Went there for a late lunch. Used to be a weekly customer but noticed the service has gone downhill so haven't been in a while. Food took forever even though they weren't that busy. Both entrees came out wrong. When it was time to pay the bill, took the waitress a good 20 minutes to come get my credit card. Don't know if they have changed owners or management, but has steadily declined over the last few years.
After this we went back to the dining area before deciding just to leave the place. On our way out we again spied a couple of empty four-person tables. It's absolutely puzzling the way they manage their restaurant; we would have spent another $100 there between the four of us, easily. Instead we left to go elsewhere. Money left on the table by poor management and unnecessary rudeness.
To make things even worse, the bar area was so crowded that we ended up having to stand within the walking routes of the wait staff and busboys. This led to one of the more obnoxious staff members yelling at us and making us feel like idiots; "Really bad place to stand guys, you're right in the way. I have to bring out food, you better move." After which he rudely shoved past us. Listen pal, it's not my fault you're having a bad day or whatever; and your restaurant denied us a table despite the fact that there have been 3 open for the past 15 minutes. The exchange really made me angry, I'm getting annoyed again just thinking about it.
I live very near this place so over the years I've dropped in 3-4 times on nice days and my experience has always been the same. The food is awful, the prices are too high, and it's often extremely crowded. My trip there this past weekend is pretty archetypal of my experience there.
We finished up and asked if we could move to a 4-person table since we had two other guests joining us for food and we were going to have a few more drinks since it was a nice day (thanks Uber!). They told us they couldn't seat us, which was fine. I understood that on such a nice day there was probably a high demand for tables. What was frustrating, though, was having to stand near the bar area (which was incredibly crowded) and watching 2-3 four-person tables at a time remain empty even after they had been cleaned. Why couldn't we just have taken one? We ended up not ordering any more food since we had nowhere to eat. Did they not want to sell more food?
Very great place to eat, friendly waiters with no waiting time!!
Hi
To start off on a positive note- The outdoor seating area and bar are absolutely gorgeous on a nice day. There's an open view of the hills around 287 that almost makes it worth the trip there. But it's not.
I got a table with one other companion and we ordered some drinks and nachos outside. There wasn't a wait, which was nice. The day was beautiful and the view was great. The nachos were pretty terrible. There were large cuts of Romaine lettuce leaves piled on top for some reason, which we removed- A little weird but okay. The real problem was that half of the nachos tasted like soap. We didn't finish them, and later both got stomach aches from what we ate. Gross.
Enjoying a late lunch on a beautiful day..all is good here
So we left the bar area and went to the dining area, but this wasn't much better because we were constantly in the wait staffs way. There were some tents and about a half dozen picnic-style tables set up next the dining area. It was some sort of event area, but it was completely empty. There was a sign that asked us not to enter, so we asked one of the waitresses if we could sit there until whoever had the area reserved arrived to use it. She was friendly and said to go ahead, it shouldn't be a problem. So we go in and we don't even get to sit down before a different person rushes over and tells us we're not allowed in the area. And he did this by yelling to us and rudely saying "Nope.", as if we did something wrong. Didn't even give us the time of day or to explain that we had asked another member of staff.
It's a pretty terrible experience pretty much all around, and it seems to have gotten worse over the years. It used to be that the food was poor and overpriced, now it seems overcrowded, poorly managed, and staffed by overly rude people as well. The outdoor area and the view are fantastic, but even then it's just not worth it. Find somewhere else with outdoor seating until this place changes management and cook staff.
