Even went over the different salad dressing options for my side salad and I just let him pick something based on what kind of interests I had and it was perfect. Timing of appetizers, bread, salads, and main course were perfect. Fresh coffee at 8:30pm. Complimented on my outfit by another waitress passing by and the manager visited us to see how our meal was going. It was a date night for me and my husband which we don't get often with two teenage kids at home. So much fun!!…
