One person in our party never got her drink--we had to find someone to get it for her. Another person in our party ordered a taco plate without some of the toppings. One of the salads came w/o the chicken that was supposed to be in it-we had to find someone to get the chicken for us. We waited over 20 minutes for our food & others that came in after us had their food already. We ordered 2 salads, a burger & a taco plate. Simple stuff. They eventually did make good on everything & were apologetic.

We were celebrating a birthday of our friend. I was the one who suggested Ki's.I was hoping that like in almost all restaurants, cheap or expensive, the management will offer a dessert and birthday song to my friends. Never happened. Instead they were trying to rush us out of the restaurant. Not sure of the reason. Either big group was supposed to come or they wanted to go home as soon as possible. Not the usual great service I WAS EXPECTING FROM Ki's.

Have always loved this place, when my children were little I enjoyed many weekday lunches here. Now that the kids are grown and we live a bit further away our visits are less frequent and more likely to involve dinner; it still feels like coming home. Family owned, friendly staff, great view, relaxed atmosphere:) The sushi bar is an excellent addition. Thank you Ki"s
