Excellent quality and ambiance...It was all extremely tasty. Pleasant, attentive staff. Loved it!
How dare you make me wait 1 hr and 45 minutes and no food and can't find anyone to help me. My server seemed to have disappeared. I'm so hangry!!!!!!
Atmosphere is very cool, food was decent but not over the top.
you gotta eat here. most professional servers and managers in the world. The food is great but only half of the whole experience. Being in customer service myself makes me appreciate it in other businesses and these people are after my heart!
I've never had a bad meal here. The best salad anywhere, followed by excellent prime rib, steaks, and sandwiches. Chicken fingers are awesome!
This resturant has a story. It used to be a train station back when people traveled frequently by trains. The decor on the out and inside of the building is the proof. It still looks like a train station. However the food is well known by everyone in Columbia as being one of the " must eat" places. For anyone who enjoys and occasional spirit, the strawbeery Daquri is absolutely amazing and I don't even really care for daquri's.Once seated there is a large assortment of appetizers and entrees that may be picked from. My personal fav is Salmon salad with the House Dressing. It is amazing!! There is a new salad called a veggie salad, wow!! The steaks are said to be nothing short of wonderful. The Barbeque nacho appetizers are huge and enough for a meal alone. This is a resturant that needs to be dinned in more than once for sure. A bit upscale but nothing overly fancy.
The food is OK... used to be better. And the size has come down for the money but it is OK.
Delicious food and nice atmosphere. Enjoy eating here.
