  Food was good. Wait staff were not welcoming. There was no greeting walking in the door while the hostess just stood there, as well as nothing said when leaving. They just sat there like they were there just to hang out for the day behind the hostess stand. We sat ourselves at the bar. The staff spent more time playing on their phones than waiting tables. One waitress came behind the bar periodically to check on us, but one guy had to get up and walk down the bar to get someones attention to order a drink and food. Two others, next to us, ordered one round and decided to leave because of the... weirdness. There were wait staff just hanging out talking. I get that there are slow times during the mid week afternoons but playing on your phone while at work and lounging around is not a good business plan. And wait staff should turn the volume off on their cell phones. I don't need to hear that you've received a message every few seconds to a couple of minutes. Again, food was good but the staff could stand to have better appreciation for having a job. Was this an episode of Restaurant Impossible? I'm not picky or high maintenance but I would not recommend nor will I be going back.
