We came to Texas Roadhouse to celebrate our anniversary based on previous visits where the service…read moreand experience were always excellent and consistent with the Texas Roadhouse standard. Unfortunately, this visit completely ruined what was supposed to be a special day for us. Our server, Amber, never once came back to check on our table after the food was delivered. She did not ask how the steaks were cooked, whether we needed refills, or if everything was okay. We were left completely unattended throughout the meal. At one point, my husband asked for more butter for the rolls, and instead of simply bringing butter, she brought an entirely new basket of rolls with three butters. We sent the rolls back and left the butter untouched on the table. A manager eventually came over after we expressed concerns, and we explained that Amber had not checked on us a single time during the meal. What made the situation even worse was hearing Amber respond by saying, "I don't deal with disgruntled customers." That response was disappointing, dismissive, and completely unprofessional. This was our anniversary dinner, and instead of enjoying a special occasion, we left frustrated and disappointed. We have always had much better experiences at Texas Roadhouse, which is why this visit was so surprising. Management should review the footage from this visit. It will clearly show that our table was never properly attended to after the food arrived. We truly hope this location returns to the level of service and professionalism customers normally expect from Texas Roadhouse.

Shorty's Steakhouse (Garrett, Indiana) - looking for a unique steakhouse, not too far outside Fort…read moreWayne? Shorty's is one of the Salvatori's Restaurant Group offerings that is located on Main Street in Garrett. Head north on 327 to the downtown area. Shorty's is set in a small and older building located on the east side of the road. You will need to park on the street - which isn't an issue in Garrett. As I said... Shorty's is a smaller venue. The building holds about 10 people at the bar and 90 inside dinners. The outdoor patio appears to seat about 50 people. Shorty's is always busy - especially on Friday/Saturday nights. So, make a reservation via their website. The larger side room can hold bigger groups of 8-14 people. Otherwise you are limited to a table of four. Upon entering the restaurant you will quickly encounter the host stand right at the door. There is no real foyer area to wait for your table. You may feel uncomfortably close to a stranger if things are backed up. The bar area is one of the first things you see. Legend has it that this bar was relocated from a Chicago area business who had it installed in around the time the 1893 World's Fair was in Chicago. The bar wood work, design and finishing are gorgeous! Very inviting. The older part of restaurant retains the decor of the old building - attractive dark wood interiors/fixtures, green plaster ceilings and hardwood floors. All are very comfortable and welcoming. The host and service team were very friendly and helpful. There was plenty of help to hustle drink orders, refills and follow up. The kitchen is very small. Food orders may take a bit of time when they are busy. So be prepared to relax, enjoy a bar drink, converse and admire the renovations. Shorty's has a decent variety to offer on their smaller food and drink menus. They are more than just steaks. In general, most items are a bit pricey...but probably normal for most area steakhouses. Here is a run down of the food we ordered: -Table Bread: nothing to special; white bread roll with a firm exterior and soft inside with basic butter; tasted like it was freshly baked -House Salad: nice sized salad with a fresh taste and ingredients; several side vegetables and cheese to dress up/accent the salad; the honey mustard dressing tasted familiar - probably not made in house -Crab Cakes: my wife loved her crab cakes; tender, full of crab and seafood tastes; nicely grilled exterior -Prime Rib & Baked Potato: delicious taste, tender and smaller amounts of fat; my medium rare request seemed to be more medium as I didn't see much pink coloring; the real horseradish lacked the usual bold kick that I except. The potato was baked perfectly and accented with the usual dollops of smooth butter and sour cream. Good steakhouse choice. Overall, Shorty's offers good food & drink selections in a unique setting. Remember, Shorty's is a very popular place and fills up quickly. Therefore, plan ahead and make a reservation. Shorty's is definitely worth a trip to Garrett to give them a try.

First time to Shortys and everything was stellar!!! Great price point, nice environment, friendly…read moreservice. We made reservations for a busy Friday night and we are very pleased. Good came out quickly and it was all so delicious. The tuna tartare special was fantastic! Might be one of the best tuna dishes I've ever had. The prime rib was flavorful and the horsey sauce good. We will definitely be back.

Interesting place…read more Let me cover the easy aspects first. The staff was very friendly and very gracious. Upscale atmosphere but they didn't turn me away when I wanted to work on my laptop so points for that!!. I didn't go upstairs but it's possible they have a more casual dining atmosphere there. I had the prime rib vegetable soup and didn't send it back but it was not edible. It was quite heavy with grease. It had tons of potential but something went awry there. I also had the black and bleu salad with beef tips. It was quite good but had way too much dressing for me I should have ordered the dressing on the side anyway so that's on me. The flavor was great! The beef tips had a lot of flavor. I asked for them to be rare to medium rare and they came out medium which was fine I guess. If I were ordering a steak and it came out that way I would have had them redo it. But steak tips are hard to get right and get out to the table while still pink. I enjoyed that salad. Overall the food was excellent. Side note: The attire is more geared toward suits and dresses. But the staff treated every guest very well. I'd definitely return. ACS is filling a much needed gap in Auburn's dining options and they're doing a great job.

Mad Anthony's Auburn Tap Room - dinning & relaxing downtown Auburn, Indiana…read more You can find Mad Anthony's just off the north side of the square in Auburn. It is set in an older building where they have kept the unique brickwork and history apart of the decor - nicely done! There is street parking available...though you may have to hunt for it. The serving team was friendly and helpful on this trip. Mad Anthony's has a large and varied menu. Plenty of choices for most dinners. I can not comment on the beer selections as this isn't my expertise. We started with the cheese curds which were excellent. The curd had a thick breading whose seasoning really accented the cheese and oil tastes. It comes off light and slightly crunchy. The cheese curd was simply delicious. It was slightly gooey and just under a shade under temperature hot. The marinara sauce was thick and heavy on the tomato taste. This made a good complement to the cheese flavor. Definitely give this a try! We also tried the fried pickles. The pickle was a very thin "stick" of dill pickle spear. It has a pretty good tart taste. However, I would prefer a thicker pickle and more bold pickle taste. The pickle was wrapped in a thicker breading that differed from the cheese curd. This breading was more corn meal based and textured. It comes off a little tougher and retains the oil taste more. The dill sauce was really thick, colder and somewhat difficult to dip into. Overall a nice appetizer with a different flare. I've been craving a deep dish pizza and just happened to get one at Mad Anthony's in Auburn. MA has about 8 different deep dish pizzas and 10 flatbread type pizzas to choose from. I went with the medium Politician deep dish pizza for $21. The crust on the edges of the pizza came out a bit tough and crunchy. The interior was nice and soft. The edge crust had a bit of a buttery flavor. The sauce was plentiful and sweet. They use plum Roma tomatoes in the sauce. This gives is a richer tomato taste and zing. It also enhances the moistness of the pizza while keeping the topping thick. The toppings were piled high and thick - as you would expect. There was plenty of fresh cheese to give you that pull apart stretch. The vegetable toppings were fresh and had a bit of crunch to them. The meat was layered nicely and plentiful. The pepperoni and sauce had a nice meat flavor that completed the taste pallet. Overall I thought this was a good pizza. I'm sure there are places that do deep dish even better. A member of our party ordered one of the flatbread pizzas. This looked delicious as well.

For example, the chicken basket purchased this evening is a 50/50 chance of being a fail. Tonight was a fail (again). The Chicken was very dark and dry to the point of being unpleasant to eat. We have had them forget the sauce in the past while giving inconsistent portions. But they topped everything tonight..... a couple of the potato wedges were actually ROTTEN. I have never eaten a rotten potato until tonight, I can tell you a rotten potoato tastes just how it woud smell and immediately kills the appetite. In the past we have received salads with missing ingredients, so stopped ordering salads. It always feels risky ordering take out from the Italian Grill. We have attempted to notify management in the past , with no response or care. If you like playing food roulette, you may enjoy it. But for me, I think it is time to take them off our take out list.

There is a large bandstand, and good sized dance floor. They have garage doors that can open to the front patio.

Our neighbor is cat-sitting for us and suggested Salvatori's as a good place for Italian, and she was so right! It's not a big space and you may have a short wait for a table, but so worth it. The ambiance is casual and family-oriented, not too noisy even when full, and (best of all) there's No TVs. Heavenly! I had the pasta Apuli (minus the red pepper flakes), she had the Spaghetti Olio and we split a bruchetta and a cannoli for a to-go dessert. The portions are so large, we needed to-go boxes for both dinners even though we ordered the half sizes! Generous doesn't begin to describe this place. Our server was warm and attentive without 'hovering' and the host stopped by to ensure all's well. We're coming back through town on Monday and I think we'll be back again!

I was a party of one so I was in for a drink and dinner rather quick and they delivered. They had a special which was a salad and rigatoni with vodka sauce and chicken that the waiter recommended. It was good, huge portion, and spicy. I took half to go and ate for breakfast. Only criticism were that the house red wine, a chicanti was not good and the waiter touched my bread with their hand when boxing my meal. Like they picked it up with their hand to not get it covered in sauce then picked it back up to out on top of the pasta to close the lid. That I could have done without seeing and needless to say that bread got thrown away. But I'll be back!
