"We were pretty excited to try this restaurant. Especially after reading reviews written by people who dined with their pups on the patio. We love pet-friendly restaurants. We dined here mid-afternoon on a Saturday. When we arrived it was moderately crowded. We were offered our choice of tables and were seated at a small round table in the corner window near the patio entrance. Cute table, but somehow easy for staff to overlook. Took a long time to get service even though we were exactly in the path from the ice and the kitchen window and the patio door. Maybe the staff were all distracted by the dogs on the patio...there was no way for patrons with their pets to get to that area without walking through the restaurant which is through the seating area. There was one well-behaved dog and one who unfortunately was with a couple who didn't seem to care that their dog was begging at other tables and pawing at patrons while they drank their wine, oblivious to their dog wandering and being in the way of the staff and other patrons. The food receives mixed reviews. The wings were amazing. I mean I'd go back just to have them again. The fish had light and crispy breading which was delicious, if a tad overcooked. The burger, though. We ordered it medium rare with onion rings. What we received was a well-done burger with fries. It was dry. We would have sent it back but it took a long time to get our food for some reason...(so long that one of the wait staff thought we had completed our meal and offered us dessert before our food even came out). Also, we ordered and paid for the onion rings and didn't get them....fries on the plate....again, with as long as it took for the food to come out and I didn't realize hubby had paid the $2 upcharge for food we didn't get until after we left...so, disappointing. So, not sure what to say about all of this. The wings were amazing. The rest lands somewhere between meh and no. The servers were very nice, but the quality of the experience with them wasn't great. Wrong food...we felt...forgotten...offering dessert before food arrives....it was only busy-ish and the staff were able to take their meal break at a nearby table during the time we were there so not sooo busy, (and certainly NOT saying they shouldn't be able to take a break because of course they should). We are pretty easy-going and patient, but this was really a test. No one likes to feel forgotten/overlooked. If it was only slow service that would be one thing, but slow service and wrong food...idk... So, will there be a next time? Only maybe. Would I recommend this to a friend? Probably not. I don't usually judge a place based on one visit because there can be an off-day anywhere but this was a lot of different issues and I'm not sure I'd go back. It's not a definitely-will-not, but not a ya-I'll-try-again. That's a bummer, because those wings rocked!"
