Had "Miss Charm" as a waitress. When she finally arrived at our table, she was carrying a load of dirty dishes but took our drink order and disappeared. We were in the bar area so after about 5 minutes we saw the bar staff preparing our order. After waiting to have them delivered for about another 3 minutes, we finally went to the service area and picked them up ourselves. Also picked up some peanuts along the way. Only one of the four had to be returned since it was the incorrect item. Never did get around to bringing the water that was also requested.

Finally got an order in and it was delivered in about 16 minutes which gave the fries plenty of time to get cold and stale. Again, one of the entrees was not delivered as ordered. We also sent the fries back and after a few minutes were told the reorder would be out in a minute or minute and a half. About 8 minutes later, we received 9 fries on a plate. They were hot this time but presentation and customer service left much to be desired , however.

All the while, what appeared to be a huge staff were sweeping, dusting, wiping, refilling, stacking stools, etc. Not quite the atmosphere we were seeking during our dinner but perhaps some people like it. When we asked one server for ketchup, he told us he didn't have any in his back pocket and continued to refill salt shakers. A nice touch, we thought.

Before you ask, we couldn't find a manager or anyone else who seemed to be in charge tonight.

Sorry Cody's, you're off our list, too.

Ask for Travis McHenry next time.
