    Wines on menu not available. Inflexible on meal request. Food ok, but not great. Music too loud. Service slow.

    The service was incredibly slow and unattentive. The food came out scattershot with some items appearing to have been under a lamp for so long the Ramakin of sauce would burn the hand if picked up. The drinks were horrible and so overpriced. If they weren’t so bad maybe the cost could be justified but not the bad drinks they served.

    The food was delicious flavor wise, but some of the textures felt reheated. Service wise they were slammed so they were doing the best they could, but it took almost ten minutes after the food came to get utensils. With some operational tweaks it would have been amazing, but for now the delicious flavor of the food was the only positive in the experience

    I visited the restaurant Sunday March 16. 2025. To start i waited from 1:15 to 3:30 n did not eat. The waiter used profanity when explaining the poor service. While there was plenty of staff, it just appeared unorganized. The waiter at my table had no clue when my order was ready n when it was it was given to another table. We suggested a reorder only to discover that order never went in. The manager slowwwwwwwwly showed up ( pregnant ) She offered to comp us but we declined. I went to the bathroom n there was no tissue. It is not for me. I like Gibsons n Mortons.
