This is one of the worst restaurants I have ever been to. The food was pretty decent – ribs great, chili dogs, chicken – portions big enough to share with my husband and father-in-law. The service however was HORRIBLE. We sat for a half an hour before we had to search for a waitress who were either having a smoke or hiding out in the back. Took another 15 minutes to get drinks, in fact we had to go to the bar ourselves since our waitress disappeared. Then about another 45 minutes to get our food. (I wanted to leave, but my father-in-law had fond memories of the food). If we needed extra napkins or a refill on our drinks, we had to get it ourselves or sit and suffer. Then when came time to leave (we waited another half an hour without the waitress coming back with the check), my husband stood up and hit his head on the low ceiling and got stabbed in the head by a screw sticking out. When we told the staff, they didn’t offer any compensation; they just hammered the screw back in like nothing had happened. Mind you the food was good, but not good enough to warrant a return visit. I’m surprised nobody else has complained or shut this place down – the eating area was very dirty.
