It has been awhile since I've been to Chart House. Everything was top notch!! Our sever was Leslie, she was amazing. She was attentive and professional. We were having a business dinner and she was amazing, she asked if we were ready to order and we were not, she respectfully gave us time. Made sure we had drinks and checked in with us until we were ready to order, we never felted rushed. Food was delicious and well priced. I am coming back next month...
