So-So. The food was ok, but the service was about the worst that I have had in a long time. I’ve been here before, and had hoped that it had changed, but to no avail.
Good Atmosphere. I’ll start by saying that like everyone else we had a bit of a time finding it and drove past it. I agree with one of the other reviewers that the atmosphere probably one of the best in Cumming. Not the corporate look that most places go for now. We ordered the stuffed mushrooms for a starter. The flavor was good but there was too much breading. I thought they were too cold but my wife disagreed. The wine list was not bad and we ordered a bottle. I had the seafood mixed grill and like the name says it was mixed. The shrimp were over cooked. They were very tuff but the scallops were cooked very well and the fish was perfect. I got the feeling that the shrimp had been sitting and had been reheated. I got the vegetables with them and was surprised that it was not the normal zucchini and squash. It was a mix of asparagus, broccoli and carrots that were cooked very well. My wife had the City Pasta which she describes as alright. She said it had good flavor but needed more seasoning. The portions were fairly large and we did not do dessert. I was not impressed by the food overall. The service was good and our server stopped by several times to check on us. There was a fairly long wait between the appetizers and the main course. The high light of the meal for me was the seafood bisque which I enjoyed very much. We will give it another try in the future just for the atmosphere. I think that for the quality of the food the prices are a little high. Take the advice of another reviewer and go just after 8 on show nights because the place was full when we arrived and emptied right before the show.
Awesome. The food was fantastic, the service is great and friendly and the atmosphere was perfect.
Ho Hum. I have been here a number of times for lunch and dinner and never come away thinking it was great. Our server the other night was far more interested in getting us served and out (we didn’t sit down until after 8pm). I had the chicken with capers and it was so salty I couldn’t eat it. I had tried to order the prime rib but they were sold out. Funny though because the hour we were sitting at the bar before dinner, the dining room had empty tables everywhere. They must have had a very conservative plan on the prime rib sales. The grapefruit martini is the real reason I can be talked into returning each time. Very good.
Chicken tortilla soup. It was yummy
Absolutely terrible. Service was awful. People got their food at different times, the drinks were overpriced and watered down, our server complained that a group of 8 rotated two seats so that one person could sit closer to the birthday girl. Food was the only high point, but very overpiced. Atmosphere was the only thing that was worthy of any praise. I expected more.
Expected a little more. Not much to write about. food was ok.
