Was out of several items on the menu. Waitress couldn’t provide separate checks after saying she could when she brought the bill, creating a very uncomfortable situation for our guests. Waited on drink order. Nothing about the evening felt right. I was expecting an evening with good food, with background music. I felt like I was on the front rock of a concert. I don’t think I will ever be back, unfortunately.
