    Love the patio and nice weather for the view. My other half and I come here for dates…read moreperiodically... It is the place of our first date. Great atmosphere and food.

    I grew up in Montana. I know prime rib. Prime rib is practically a food group here…read more We have our favorites--On the Rocks in Worden and 3 North Bar & Grill in Acton. Both serve AMAZING prime rib. But tonight we thought, "You know what? Let's branch out. Let's try the Windmill again! It was GREAT a few years ago!" That was our first mistake. We didn't have reservations and they were packed, so we sat in a booth on the bar side. Fair enough. Busy restaurant, Saturday night vibes, whatever. We can be patient. Ten minutes go by before we get WATER. Another ten minutes before anyone comes over to take our drink and food order. Then we wait. And wait. And WAIT. Nearly an HOUR later, our food finally arrived. At this point I assumed they had gone out back, located the cow, negotiated the terms of its surrender, processed it, and THEN started cooking our dinner. Surely after an hour, this prime rib was going to absolutely SLAP. Friends. It did not slap. It barely tapped. I ordered the prime rib, but what arrived tasted like a ham steak wearing a fake mustache trying to sneak into the beef section. The texture was bizarre. The flavor was bizarre. The entire thing was having an identity crisis. I kept looking at it like, "Sir... are you SURE you're prime rib?" Meanwhile, my son ordered the "Prime Top Cut Sirloin." Apparently "top cut" means they launch it directly into the sun and wait for it to return. That poor steak was BURNT on the outside and tough. I'm pretty sure if we'd had another 20 minutes, we could've attached a handle to it and used it as a cutting board. Look, I understand busy restaurants. I understand slow service. I understand kitchens getting backed up. But after nearly an hour, I expected a prime rib so magnificent that angels would descend from Heaven carrying au jus. Instead, I got a ham impersonator and my son got a roofing shingle. We came for prime rib. We left with questions. SO. MANY. QUESTIONS. The Windmill we remembered from a few years ago was GREAT. Whatever happened tonight was an entirely different cinematic universe. Prime rib: currently experiencing an identity crisis. Sirloin: cremated. Wait time: long enough to reconsider every decision that brought us here. That cow deserved a better ending. And after waiting almost an hour, SO DID WE. Next time I'll drive the extra couple of miles for a few More ounces and a well deserved Food coma.. That is all.

    The food was overpriced and the quality was marginal at best. An $8 bowl of chili shouldn't be the…read moresame (or worse) than what I'd get out of a can purchased at the grocery store. The bartender had a serious attitude problem. When my chili came with onions, I asked if I could get one without the onions. She disgustingly said "yes", making no effort to hide the fact that she was annoyed by the request. She stated that most places put cheese and onions on chili, suggesting that I should thought to request no onions when placing the order. A more common scenario is for the server to ask if you want these additional ingredients when they take the order. They will charge you extra (on top of their already high prices) if you pay with a credit card. This same bartender didn't share this detail with me until I asked why my bill wasn't the price listed in the menu. When I expressed disappointment and asked for a receipt so I could go to the cashier to pay with cash, she made the comment "I don't make the rules". I usually won't bother reviewing a place based on just a bowl of soup, but my experience here was so awful that I have little reason to ever return.
