The steaks we ordered were juicy, and cooked how we ordered them (med-rare) but had no real flavor at all besides the char from the grill, the garlic mashed potatoes were more like creamy mashed potatoes and the portion they served us was ridiculously large! They gave my husband the wrong dressing with his salad, there was too much Caesar dressing on my salad and our waitress never really came back to check on us.<br />The live music was too loud and pretty much ruined our experience. It was too expensive for something that I could make better at home.Furbowskinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808060991534955915.post-9734584657270242132015-01-07T13:16:34.619-05:002015-01-07T13:16:34.619-05:00Misspelled.

The owners just need to stay on top of their employees, keep working, showing their presence daily and if they get overwhelmed hire someone they can trust.

That was their demise not the identity crisis. The food was great, the working staff is great. But to get respect you need to give it.

Steakhouse or bar that played live music. The owners decided to go forward with the steakhouse model which upset quite a few people. No more heavy pours so the alcoholics needed a new place to drink. No more live music so the geriatrics on a fixed income couldn't nurse an ice water all night while taking up space. So what do they do? Sign up on TI or Yelp just to slag the place. I particularly like the made up reviews that are based on menu items that are found on their website. Hello....the menu they use day to day is not the one on their website (which they have not updated in quite a while).<br /><br />I applaud the owners for making the right decision here.

We got the wine in about a minute or two after sitting down, but that was the end of the service. We sat there looking at our menus and waiting for someone to take our order but no one did. So I left some cash on the table for the wine and we left. We used to go there in the past and loved the steaks and the atmosphere. It's all gone now.

The service was the worst (even when we lived there three years ago), we always had long waits for our food and had to flag down servers to get attention...sounds like none of that has changed and that is sad because it could be a really neat little hidden gem and the new decor looks pretty awesome.Azlabratnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808060991534955915.post-49800435089453042742013-01-02T19:57:52.430-05:002013-01-02T19:57:52.430-05:00Whiskey Creek is no longer one of my favorite dest...Whiskey Creek is no longer one of my favorite destination restaurants. I have to agree with the other comments. The live music was one of the main reasons for going off the beaten path to this cozy, quaint venue. It is cleaner and has an updated decor, but has lost it's small home town feeling. When we ordered, they were out of our first two choices, one being a salad. The waitress was more interested in visiting with her friends or regulars (?) at the nearby table than in attending to us. LONG waits between seeing her to take our order or check back with us. She never did come take our money. We carried it up to the bar as we were leaving. It's sad to say, but we won't be back either. My recommendation to others? Don't waste your time.
