we wanted to make reservations, but that's done by the answering machine. We did however have reservations when we arrived. One good thing.
The ad said half-price drinks, wine and appetizers during happy hour, which is 4 to 6. We arrived at 5:15 and were met by a very gracious hostess. We informed her we were going to the bar to partake of the happy hour specials and for her to find us at six o'clock for our table to which she agreed. We ordered a bloody Mary and a glass of white wine, the crab cocktail and an order of hot wings. 25 minutes later we received our appetizers. I was unable to eat the wings. They were like rubber. The bartender did remove the eight dollars from the bill for the eight wings. The rest of it came to $30.92 with tax. I was informed at that point by the bartender that none of the items ordered were included in the happy hour prices. Upon entering I asked the hostess if we could transfer our bar tab to our dining tab. She informed we could. The bartender informed us we can only transfer our drink costs to the dining room.
Our server was outstanding. He brought water and warm bread with butter immediately. We each ordered the 14 ounce ribeye rare with baked potato. I was unable to cut the bottom of my potato skin with a steak knife, it was so hard. The potatoes were wrapped in foil which steams the potato. I don't care for that, some people do. The steak had a good flavor but a great deal of fat and grizzle.I enjoy it with the three small button mushrooms.
Upon leaving, I attempted to voice my concerns with the hostess. She was completely uninterested.
I am a retired chef of many years. Included in several of those years I was president of the restaurant chain that covered the whole US. Although they were busy, I can't imagine why. We will never return and of course, let our friends know what we thought it.
The Chandler area must be desperate for dinner houses.
