    My two daughters and I had a great experience from the delicious food to the excellent service. One thing I do not understand, though, is the service charge. It was added to my bill and it was 20%. Is that the tip?

    We spent Thanksgiving at Wellingtons. I couldn't believe how lovely it was. Being served family style allowed us to enjoy ample serving sizes and pack up leftovers. It felt like eating at home with our family. Thank you servers , chefs and staff for making a lovely holiday.

    Excellent! My husband had the steak and said it was very good. I had a burger and that too was really good.

    Avoid this place. Our party of five had reservations. We were seated promptly, and water was brought to the table. It took 30 minutes to get a drink, another 30 to receive our salad and over an hour and 45 minutes to get our cold Entrees. The short ribs were tough and cold. I'll never go back.

    Great place to grab a quick bite before an event at MVP Arena. It was busy but our waiter was great at bee-boppin around and checking in to make sure we had what we needed. Food was great!

    The food was very good but the kitchen was slow and mistimed bring the appetizers out at the same time. The chairs in the dinning room had seen better days so severely detracted from the overall ambiance.

    We are here multiple times over the weekend due to its convenience. The place is pleasant and staff is gracious. But it really needs some oversight - The NYStrip is so tough to the point of being not edible. The speaker system is broken so a constant churn/winding noise is prominent in the background so extremely unpleasant. The staff is not able to make adjustments. My morning breakfast had a sharp foreign object. Furniture is worn and while the premises gives a tidy appearance, it needs some attention.
