Service was excellent, the food was so-so. If you like all your food seriously drowned in sauce and butter, go for it.<\/p>\n<p>We started with the hummus -it had an unhealthy layer of oil on top with an uninviting plate. The waitress explained it was meant to be that way (?).<\/p>\n<p>The mussels were fishy and tasted old. I imagined some kind of neurological problem rearing it&#8217;s ugly head in my future. \u00a0She had the beet salad with the dressing on the side -very good, fresh and I am so glad that entire gallon of dressing didn&#8217;t end up wilting it. The acorn stuffed squash was full of fat and butter. The first bite was good, but she gagged at every other bite.<\/p>\n<p>I thought it might be a healthy choice, but oh my goodness.<\/p>\n<p>I had the salmon special -just good. Not great. Also, I&#8217;m not sure why but all of the drinks had fruit flies in them. Manager on duty laughed it off, but I&#8217;m sure they just scooped out the fly in the first drink and brought it back as there were still remnants of wings in my drink. The &#8220;Honey Sidecar&#8221; in the sugared martini glass was excellent-best part of the whole meal- and I am saying that although I picked a fruit fly out of that one too. It made the squash taste delicious after three drinks \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>The waitress explained they have an ongoing problem -Ugh.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, you are better just going to another cheaper chain like Outback or even Ruby Tuesdays (love the salad bar) and the drinks aren&#8217;t $9.25 a pop.<\/p>\n<p>Also, The Creme Brulee was runny and more pudding-like. I just kept sipping my Honey Sidecar and everything was alright&#8230;..
