My vote: Don't go. I haven't gone there since it's reopened, but if things are even HALF as bad as they were the last time I went, it's still horrible. From the moment we sat down it was a disaster. There were just three of us (did the parent thing). First it was about 10 minutes before anyone came by to check on us. Ten minutes is a long time when you don't even have the menu. It was during this time that I decided to actually time the service to be really accurate about what I just knew was going to be a bad experience. After finally taking our order, the rude waiter didn't appear again for quite a long time. In the meantime the chips and salsa had run out, and our water needed to be refilled. To top that, when our order finally did arrive it was 45 minutes after we had ordered. Then, I saw my order was wrong and told the waiter. He became very defensive and defiantly ran off to get a menu to prove me wrong. He realized that HE was the one who was wrong and tried to correct it. I said to forget it; I didn't want to wait 45 minutes again. He did offer free frozen yogurt for the table as a consolation, but he didn't know that I already knew that EVERYONE got free forzen yogurt with their dinner. We waited an additional 20 minutes before we got the check (after asking for it). Needless to say he didn't get a tip (I think he got 23 cents on $35). The food was also not good and very pricey. It was not at all worth the drive. If you're looking for a place with atmosphere and nothing else, go. But there are plenty of other places in town you could choose from without having to drive that far out. Just my opinion. I may be willing to give them another chance this summer and see if anything has changed for the better. ---------- In article , "Rex L McCall" Someone wrote: >I was wondering about C& C's also.
