    Highs: Made a reservation and we were sat quickly. The dessert was excellent. The bussing staff was fantastic. Lows: The waitress wasn’t very personable or efficent. The shrimp was not deveined (gross). Items were crowded on the table. Lighting was like sitting on the sun. The manager lingered at the table.

    I eat here about once a year for my birthday. Service was a little slower than usual, I don’t think that was any fault of the server though who kept apologizing. Drinks took awhile to come even though there were too bartenders behind the one bar doing very little. Salad could have used more dressing, but the food was good.

    This is a great restaurant, it doesn’t feel like a chain at at all, the chicken and shrimp was outstanding, the steak was a bit tough … overall with the right selections this could be an outstanding evening out, the staff was really friendly and helpful and did everything with a smile which was warm and welcoming as patrons of the restaurant I almost love coming to the melting pot when I’m in the Buffalo area

    Our server was GREAT and the restaurant was very accommodating with our increase in the party size (from 7 to 10) and the time change. Food was delicious and we got our own room!
