First time will have to try one more time to decide if this will be a regular spot. Waitress was not attentive. No silverware for one in my party ( had to ask after his meal came ) had to ask for straws , had to ask for refills , ordered dessert and got wrong flavor. Food was good but our portions not as big as ppl brag. Daughters chicken tenders were overcooked ( hard crunchy ) 

Business response:

Keep feeding your inner bear! We look forward to seeing you soon Andrea !

Small parking lot , it's a L shape so if you have a big truck it will be hard to get turn around when it's full 

Business response:
