most of the food as good. My son ordered the prime rib sandwich and it was tough and nachos were not the best. Waitress did an awesome job, however the kitchen service was very slow. We ordered 1 kids meal, 2 prime rib sandwiches, 1 chicken sandwich and 1 medium cooked 6 oz sirloin and it took almost a hour to receive food.

Each visit is getting more lax in service. Food quality is declining . Just this last visit my husband order the fish and it wasn’t done. I got pulled pork and it was meh.. tasted very similar to the frozen packaged stuff I use to buy at save a lot.. service from the staff can be hit or miss .. had a lovely waitress the last visit though.. there are better places out there for the same price range or even better with better food .. we won’t be back

From Virginia, One of top 3 places I’ve ever eaten. Great food, wait staff and management. Great prices for portions you get. We got a anniversary coming up , and when asked where do I want to have dinner I blurted out Dakota’s so we’re driving up and staying the night so I can have my dinner. Absolutely LOVE this place

One of the best experiences I’ve had at a restaurant in a while. Our waitress was great, the food was even better. I got grilled salmon, it was the best I’ve ever had. Don’t know if they’re always this good, but we will try it again.

We drove an hour to check this place out. The service was awful, they were inattentive, most of my group were dying if thirst because they never came to check on us. One of the steaks, a 10 oz ribeye was supposed to be medium well but it was just about raw. The mash potatoes were thick.Another, pinaple chicken breasts was dry, they were maybe 3 oozes each. I do not recommend this restaurant at all.

The service was pretty good and the food was just okay. I got a burger and fries, but was a bit disappointed with the size of the burger and flavor. It was about the size of one of those pre made paddies that you can pick up from the store and didn’t have much flavor to it. I’ll go back, but I’ll try something else next time.

Upon arrival the place looked nice so I thought it would be a great place to take my daughter to get a steak while we were in town. Well, you can’t judge a book by its cover. The first thing we noticed was it seemed like everything was running out. They gave us one napkin, and 2 rolls when we were seated. The waitress confirmed the shortage when she stated they were out if prime rib at a steakhouse I ordered the 6oz. Sirloin with two sides and my daughter ordered barbecue chicken. It took 32 minutes for our food to arrive. In the meantime I ordered a strawberry margarita by asking if they served alcohol at this place. I was told there was no traditional drink menu and I should have known better after the waitress stated that I shouldn’t get a drink. The drink tasted as if it was a sour fruit juice with no alcohol whatsoever. I told the waitress and she said there is not that much alcohol in their drinks? Ummm ok. If i pay for an alcoholic beverage, I expect alcohol in it. Our food finally arrived and it was cold. The portions were extremely small and I ordered a medium well steak and got an extremely well done steak. Had to ask for steak sauce because it wasnt on the table then waited 5 minutes more for that to arrive. The steamed veggies tasted like they came from a can as well. Then when we decided it was time to go I gave the waitress my card to run and she sat over at another table laughing for about 10 minutes before returning with it so we could leave. I am extremely dissappinted. The only reason I gave a 1 star was because our food eventually arrived to the table. It was an all around terrible experience and we will not be returning when we come back through this area.

The bartender waited on us and did a great job. She is so pleasant to talk to and her sense of humor is great. The restaurant is now closed for good as they are converting it to a Roosters.

Very slow service food was ok typical for this place. Server was not very friendly took about 10 mins from time we ordered drinks to get them. Sat with empty drinks for almost 10 mins before she came back to table. Then to make it worse I got the wrong drink. Spent almost 2 hours there on a slow Saturday night that most places would have had us out in about 45 mins to an hour.

Well, let’s be honest. Not what we expected for a Father’s Day dinner. The wait was terrible, considering there were open tables. The manager was not seen, staff was short handed. Restaurant was generally dirty, floors unswept, tables left dirty. Hostesses standing around chatting. Multiple tables were seen sending food back to the kitchen. Kitchen staff yelling. Restaurant seems to be ran by younger staff with not much experience.
