Frustrating

This place should fire their entire staff and start over. The service was terrible. I even gave the benefit of the doubt and went back once (thinking a few didn’t show up for work). Exactly the same the second time. Food is fine but I don’t have that kind of time to waste.

I love this place!

Can’t put my finger on it (unless you count the wonderful wings), but this place just “feels” good when you walk in. Super friendly staff. Fun patrons. I always have a great time there.

Best Seafood in the suburbs

The food is superb. My complaint is the sheer numbers of diners, hence VERY noisy. Ambiance non-existent.

But, oh the food!! Just can’t be beat. Salad bar was adequate. I haven’t been there in awhile, but Bob Chinn is usually milling around. Oh, I almost forgot the commplemtary garlic rolls – terrific

Dishes I tried:

Alaskan Bairdi Snow Crab

Very convenient if you are shopping at IKEA

The food is interesting – swedish in nature. Pretty good. It’s a small cafeteria and the prices are very reasonable.

Not too small, not too big

We live close by so my husband and I eat here very often. The food is very good. If you’re a regular the hosts greet you by name. We always eat in the bar because of the sports tv’s. The restarant-only portion of the place is family oriented. They must be doing something right because the parking lot is always almost full. The actual bar (not the tables in the bar) seems to be a place to meet singles – in the 40-55 year old range. Always a very nice experience.

The best restaurant in the suburbs

This place is not for the feint of heart. It is authentic French food. The Chef is really a chef! The service is outstanding. It is expensive (once you add up the a-la-carte items).

My husband thinks it’s too “fancy”, but not me. I feel as if I am in Paris when I am there. It’s a special occasion kind of a place, but I wish I could afford to go more often.

Trust me, it’s a wonderful experience to behold!

4 stars (not 5) because it is expensive!

Really good food. Always too busy and always a wait on the weekends. As mentioned above it is really expensive. They have wonderful coffee.

Once seated, the service is excellent. We guiltally keep going back (budget). Well what the heck, you only live once……
