    First visit. Loved the service and food! Bartender, server and even chef went out of their way to accommodate. Must try!

    Skip the shrimp scampi app but if you're in the mood for seafood, the mussels are a must-try!

    Possibly the best mashed potatoes I've ever had. Also, steak tips are to die for.

    Cook doesn't allow substitutions. Won't let me swap out slaw with my ribs? Not even for extra fries or a teeny salad? Seems pompous.
