Christmas lunch was terrible! After being seated, our waiter, Michael was very attentive and apologetic. My daughter and I ordered our meals. I ordered the SPC LT Holiday Turkey Dinner which was a disaster. First of all, I understand the restaurant was very busy on this Christmas day. Anyway, my dressing was cold, the mashed potatoes were also cold and the toasted bread I ordered was white, not brown toast, so I sent the whole plate back. My new meal plate arrived, everything was correct except the toasted bread which seemed... read more

I tried twice to go the the restaurant. The first time I had my dog and (despite saying they were pet friendly in multiple places online) I was turned away because I had my dog and told they only allowed dogs on the weekend (when their patio was open). I went back that weekend (their patio was open), asked to be added to the waitlist and was berated by a staff member loudly enough that people outside could hear (not to mention everyone in the resultant). According to her, they have never and will never allow dogs. This was i... read more
