Poorly cooked food and poor service. We were at the restaurant last night with a party of 5. The service was not up to par and some of the food had a problem also. We spent $165.00 total and we should have received a better experience for the money. The waitress didn't spend much time with us, she left dirty dishes after our appetizers, she didn't come back and check on us after the meal was delivered, we had to ask another employee to get her, one of the steaks was raw, when it was ordered medium, one of the halibut dinners was cold, it must have waited for the other meals to cook. Because the whole experience was so bad, we will be very hard pressed to come back to that restaurant.

The Bloomin' Onion, a large onion dipped in batter and deep-fried, is an appetizer with a following.
