My wife chose the chicken salad wrap with the homemade chips. She loved it. Chips were not salted. I ordered the Ken & barb burger medium , with potato salad. It was ok juicy, greasy, flavorless same with the potato salad. We will try it again for dinner but not impressed. $47 with tip 2 sodas no dessert.

As vegetarians there were ZERO options on the limited menu. The server was super sweet and let us check out the buffet before deciding to stay or not. All the sides were vegetarian and the price of 24.99 each wasn't too bad, so we stayed. The buffet included ham, turkey, fried flounder as the mains, with sides of mashed potatoes, scalloped potatoes, carrots, mixes veggies, Mac and cheese, rolls, corn bread, coleslaw, and roasted potatoes. It also included a small salad bar and about 4 dessert options. There was also Easter candy scattered on the table and plastic eggs to open with treats inside-- making the lunch extra fun! As adults we never get to open easter eggs! We also enjoyed the live music. Five stars, but subtracted one for the lack of true vegetarian options with the limited menu. Thanks for making our day special!

We asked to be sat inside (a nice break from the 93 degree temperature outside) and were led right to our table. Our server approached us immediately, asking for our drink order, but with their specials at the bar, we decided to walk up to the bar and get our own drinks. The restaurant was clean and was actually humming productively. Food was being run, tables were being cleaned, drinks were being served. Two of us opted for their version of a Grouper Reuben that they call the "Rocket"! DELICIOUS DELICIOUS DELICIOUS!!! Even the fries were hot and salted perfectly!! This sandwich IS CRAVE WORTHY! Our other party member ordered a Turkey/Bacon/Brie sandwich with fries that we were told was also outstanding! Not much else to say, we had an excellent experience and all I can say is great job by THE ENTIRE STAFF INCLUDING MANAGEMENT!

Wow... He was condescending, rude and obnoxious while insulting customers, dropping f-bombs and ignoring customers with his selective hearing. My wife doesn't even want to come here after his behavior on multiple occasions! I don't care how long your "valued" bartender has been with your company. Sometimes you must make a change for the betterment of the company and for the customer. Loyalty has its limits and customer experience should dictate your response, not blind loyalty....
