This place has always been my favorite in WNY. I have not been in since COVID, so I called at 3:45pm to see if the bar was open for seating. I normally dine alone and sit at the bar. The answer was yes. I arrived at 4:10 pm and attempted to sit at the bar. The bartender Kristen snapped at me that those seats were reserved, and asked if I had a reservation. I told her I had just called and someone said there was an open seat. She waved me off to the hostess stand and said she was full. The server at the hostess stand was sweet and said there were no bar reservations until 5:30 so I could sit there until then or be seated. I told her there was no way I would sit at the bar with Kristen's bad attitude. I said I would sit at the overflow cocktail table as long as I could have a server. Nate was my server. He was new but very nice. I asked if I could have a happy hour drink and he said yes. When he rang it up, the bartender yelled at him and said servers don't ring up happy hour drinks. She ended up making it with an attitude. I had the brie appetizer and the salmon wellington which were both amazing. The food is excellent here. Nate and the other servers turned things around but I will never enter that place if Kristen is there. They used to have awesome bartenders on Friday nights. It only takes one bad apple to turn classy into trashy!
