| - Last night, it was my moms birthday and she wanted to go country dancing. I did some research and found this place. I put out an evite and had about 8 people confirm. I called and made a reservation and told the hostess that I didn't know who was eating or just drinking. She said there's a perfect table in the bar and we could have that. I asked if I could bring in cupcakes for my mom and she literally said this..." no, because you guys aren't eating". Um....what? I just said I didn't know who was eating or not. I mean..I AM bringing 8 people into your establishment. So, we show up and take our table and everyone ordered food and drinks....everyone....so I was putting candles in the cupcakes and this hostess comes over and says...Im sorry, I thought I told you that you couldn't bring those. Seriously? I said, well...we in fact DID eat and we in fact ARE drinking so maybe I need to speak to your manager so I can find out just how much we need to spend so I can give my mom a cupcake on her birthday!? She goes to get him and tells him the story and this guy doesn't even have the courtesy to come by and say anything...at all. He sends her back over (which is a mistake in my opinion as she is being extremely rude) and she says..."you're fine", turns around and walks away. Service started out really good and ended up really bad. We had to ask for more water repeatedly and go to the bar and order our own beers. The 2 stars is for the fantastic food. We had fish tacos, ribs, pulled chicken sandwiches, a burger, cheese crisp, onion rings and potato skins....all were great. The food runner was awesome. He brought us plates and silverware which is key when you eat food at a restaurant. Overall, I'd say the food was great, the band was fun and we had a great time dancing etc...I'd say the hostess needs to dial her attitude down a notch or 2 and if management has an issue with a table doing something he thinks isn't appropriate, then maybe he should talk to said table. I'm just glad my mom had a great birthday as she was unaware of what was happening.
