Despite making a reservation and only having been there 25-30 minutes our waitress was curt, rude, and rushed us out of the restaurant before we had finished our meal. The food was good, but don’t ask about dessert, we wouldn’t know.
The Post - BoulderResponded on 17 October 2026
Darrell, we sincerely apologize for the disappointing experience you had. Being rushed through your meal is unacceptable, especially when you had a reservation. We're glad the food met your expectations, but we're truly sorry you didn't get to enjoy dessert due to the service you received. This isn't the experience we want for our guests. We'd appreciate the opportunity to make this right. Please contact me, Michael, directly so we can talk it out and invite you back for a proper dining experience. Thank you!!

Our experience here was mixed. The food was just okay, nothing that stood out. The atmosphere was a highlight, though, with a warm and positive vibe. Service was where things fell short. I asked our server what came on the salad, and they weren’t able to tell me. When it arrived, it included gorgonzola cheese, which was a surprise. It’s a very strong flavor and not something I’d expect on a standard dinner salad, so a heads-up would have made a big difference. Knowing the menu is a basic part of good service, and it would have saved me from a dish I didn’t enjoy. With a bit more attention to service, this place could easily be a solid choice. I liked the atmosphere, but I’m not sure I’d rush back.
The Post - BoulderResponded on 11 October 2026
Brian, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're glad you enjoyed our warm atmosphere, but we sincerely apologize that our service and food didn't meet your expectations. You're absolutely right that our server should have been able to describe the salad ingredients, especially distinctive items like gorgonzola cheese. This is a training issue we take seriously and will address with our team immediately. We appreciate you highlighting this gap in our service, as it helps us improve. We hope you'll consider giving us another opportunity to provide you with the complete experience you deserved.

Fried chicken was good but not great. Server was excellent. Ambience was good. Not worth the price. Doubt we’ll be back.
