    Because of our wonderful server and the delicious food we would return again but only if the music was not blaring my 11 year-old grandson ended up with a horrible headache. It was Easter Sunday and a hard rock blaring through the dining room was extremely unacceptable. It showed complete disregard for the gas. However, our server did ask that the music level be turned down which it was although hard rock continue to Blair. A good management company will assess the event the time of day and the age group of the guest before they decide to choose a certain genre in music.. this restaurant has a wonderful opportunity to increase its business substantially, but is really missing the boat.
