Review :
My husband and I tried this restaurant for the first time this morning and will not be returning. It took 45 minutes from when we got to the restaurant until we received our meals (we were a party of two) and there were only two other tables with people at them. They are obviously aware of the lengthy wait for food since the waitress was bringing around complimentary blueberry muffins while guests waited for their meals. The waitress was young and pleasant enough, but obviously had no idea what she was doing. We had to ask for coffee refills on more than one occasion, we had to ask a second time for a water which we eventually received half way through our meal, and we were never asked about a bread option for our meals and were automatically served white toast. The restaurant also only accepts cash, which is incredibly inconvenient and is not posted on the door when you enter or anywhere else in the business that my husband and I could see. When we attempted to pay our bill with our debit card we were told they "only accept cash, but there is a bank next door." The food was decent enough, but nothing worth the wait or poor service. The prices were acceptable, but higher than the average for the area and especially considering the type of restaurant. After working in the restaurant business for many years through high school and college it is not very often I am bothered enough by a business to find the need to publicly post a negative review, however this place needs exceptional help if they want to keep their business going. It is extremely obvious why they are only open two days a week and on a Saturday morning only had three tables occupied.
