Came home to Springfield, Il. two days ago from Osage Beach, Mo. As a patron of the old Fairview for 35 years, I really wanted to try the new one. What a disaster, Fettucini Alfredo was floating in water, sent it back. Friends fried chicken was on special.....looked like a fried sparrow. No decor, not even a paper placemat. Waitress too young to serve liquor. So, I ended up with a Manhatten on the rocks and the salad that came with my returned meal......cost me $11. Sad place to eat.

If I were to you, I would give it another try. We've eaten there many times, and see the same faces over and over again. I've actually been there when the manager's received standing ovations. That's with a plural. How often does that happen? It's unfortunate you had a bad experience. As with all places just starting up (they've only been open 2 mos.), there are off nights. Yes, they do have a couple under age servers, that's not uncommon. They generally work in the dining area, not the lounge area. As with the "not even a paper placemat". I suppose that's because they have the nice black cloth ones....Give it another try, I'm sure you won't be sorry!

Great place! Friendly and efficient service, good food, good prices. (I love the house dressing!) They've done a lovely job of refurbishing the old place - clean and comfortable. Nice that the "kids" from the old neighborhood have brought back a place we all enjoyed for years. We'll go back again.

My husband and I go there often. We tell everyone about the place. I've tried almost everything on the menu and never been disappointed. Service is great and all are friendly!!!
