Of course we jumped at the chance to buy one. We could partake in drink specials as well. As it turns out we made a reservation for Orange Blossom Country Club and went there for dinner tonight. When we arrived for our reservation we were greeted and seated at our awaiting table. On the way to the table the hostess told us that the loyalty card could not longer be used for reservations but instead we could call on our way to the restaurant and let them know we were coming. We will not be guaranteed a table but instead we may have a shorter wait upon arrival. Seems that now that Fred has our money the rules have changed. It seems to be a bait and switch to me. Has anyone else experienced this change??
Anyone else have a similar problem?
