    Our family of four never got served after being seated at a table for 25 minutes and we ended up leaving to go to a different restaurant next door. We were seated right away at a table and the hostess was friendly. The restaurant did not seem to be that busy, steady but not busy. About 15 minutes after being seated I asked a server passing by if we could place our order and was told she was not our server but our server would be by soon. During this time a different table had to flag down a server to pay their bill and they were complaining about the wait. Another 10 minutes (25 minutes of waiting) a couple sat down in a booth next to us and a server came by promptly to take their drink order. The situation was just really awkward after having to ask for service and still no one coming over. We decided it was best just to leave, we couldn't imagine the night getting better here. I mentioned to the hostess on the way out we were leaving because we were never served. We've been to other Not Your Average Joe's locations and food and service is typically fine and I'm sure this is not the norm but we will not be back. If a manager reads this I hope they will train the wait staff to be more attentive to customers so this doesn't happen to others.

    Our waitress, Caroline, was so patient and attentive to us the entire time we were there! Couldn’t have asked for a better place to eat and to spend the afternoon with friends at!

    The quality of the food was not as good as I remember — chicken kind of burnt, too much cheese, etc — but it was okay. The table was quiet and the waitress was lovely and attentive.
