[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 438541, member: 84"] Susie and Janet I think I'll do just that! This particular RL is bad for this sort of thing. Even way back when husband and I lived in the area. I'd hoped that it had improved, but honestly it was MUCH worse. Parking was almost impossible. People standing outside 45 mins or more, not just us a whole crowd of people. I will say other customers waiting were nice enough to give both easy child and Nichole seats outside so they didn't have to stand. But it took 20 mins of burning gas just to park, which I'll also mention. That parking lot has been too small since they built the place. Going to that particular one had been settled between the girls. I'd hoped for a different one. We had one decent waitress, two others not worth a hoot. The one decent one did attempt to get them to serve up the kid's food early.......but they told her that it was against policy. wth? they really expect kids to watch grownups eat and get nothing?? Aubrey was so hungry and sleepy by the time her food got there she barely ate, and got so tired and cranky before it arrived that she was a handful. Brandon had eaten 3 rolls, half his mom's salad, and 2 packages of crackers for the soup before his meal got to him. Who sits and eats in front of a hungry 2 yr old? When I get decent service I tip big, the whole family is that way. If service had been good they'd have seen 10 bucks from each separate check in the party, more if it had been really good. We're ones to appreciate good service. easy child was a server for years. Our restaurants here in town know that we're excellent tippers and tend to bend over backward for us, even when we're all together. Actually.....we've had a time or two when servers have tried to shuffle around so they can serve us. lol But that whole pay the tip with the check peeves me off for the reason you stated Susie.........after all that easy child was in pain, her leg was swelling badly, Nichole no longer felt well......the kids were tired of sitting there, sleepy and cranky and we just wanted to get out of there. Bad part? If they gave us free meals to that one........they'd probably have to keep doing it. If they haven't changed in all these years......... And what really ticked us off? Used to be if you had a large group you could call them and reserve a table, especially on the weekends. Nichole tried and they told her they stopped doing that. The food WAS good though......and it's one heckova deal even without the coupon. [/QUOTE]
