We went there to celebrate my friend's 50th birthday. After having a nice time and enjoying the food, we get the bill...at that point everything went sour. We were initially told that we could do up to 3 separate checks. They put a party of 21 people all on one check without even checking ahead of time how we wanted the bill divided. There were 2 separate tables and when we asked when why the check wasn't separated, they replied that it was one party. Makes no sense to me...eventually they did separate it, but it was painful and the check was short because the majority was on the one check. Sadly, the birthday person paid the difference and management gave him a measly gift card. Later I looked at the receipt after all the changes and it had DOUBLE the amount the tip amount that the original check did. Hmmm sounds HIGHLY suspicious to me...and I don't understand why in today's age it would be so difficult to get separate checks. It turned what was a great night into a nightmare! Not the way you want your birthday to end.
