My daughter's best friend recommended this place and said everything on the menu would be fantastic. My young adult son and teenage daughter and I went on a Saturday, around 1pm. We were promptly seated, at a wooden booth. A bucket of peanuts was already on the table, along with a basket of rolls and linen wrapped silverware. The peanuts were fresh and the rolls and cinnamon butter delicious! I ordered a (frozen) margarita, son a Cherry lemonade and daughter water with lemon slice . The waitress then offered to refill our bread basket. We promptly agreed and thanked her for the consideration. Everything on the menu looked delicious, so it took a while for us to choose. We couldn't hear the music for all the screaming babies seated at neighboring tables. We finally decided to order the combo appetizer which included cheesy potato skins, buffalo wings, snake bites (breaded jalapeno cheese balls). For lunch, I suggested my kids pick from the lunch time special ($8.99). My son chose smothered steak (sides french fries and corn), daughter grilled pork chop with peppercorn sauce (sides mashed potatoes and corn) and I opted for (blue ribbon) half slab rib (sides french fries and a salad). We didn't have to wait long for our appetizer to be served and had barely finished before our main course(s) had arrived. The food was plentiful. I was disappointed with the steak fries as they were mushy. The ribs, while tender and falling off the bone, were also mushy and seemingly water logged. I thought maybe the cow had been drowned! Of my entree, only the salad was great! I nibbled from my kids plates. My son's smothered steak was da bomb! My daughter's pork chop was dry as dust, even after she drowned it in sauce! ! For dessert, my son ordered the big brownie, daughter strawberry cheesecake and I ordered the apple pie. My final bill, for all of the above, was $81 not including the tip. We were all stuffed and couldn't complete our meal so we asked for plastic boxes to take our food home. They were promptly given. Later, when I reheated my ribs at home, I was just as disappointed as I'd been at the restaurant. Overall, the service was great, decor great, floors a little greasy, noisy with all the babies screaming, and the food (although plentiful) left much to be desired. I wish I'd gone to the Big Apple instead.
