Good smells, but a let down

Went for a beer and lunch before walking the bridge. Lovely empty patio in the sunshine. I poked my head in to let the staff know I’d be outside, and it took an awkward amount of time of my standing in the door with my dog for them to acknowledge me. Brought out a menu a few minutes later. Ordered a beer which came out promptly. Ask1ed for 2 minutes to look at the menu. Didn’t see the waiter for 30 more minutes at which point I decided I would finish my beer go in and ask for the check. The waiter came out and apologized saying he had forgotten about me. I said it was okay and asked for the check. He apologized profusely and offered to pay for my beer and if I would stay for lunch. Thanked the wait for the beer, told him I was on a bit of a schedule and must be going. The food honestly smelled fantastic and the southern hospitality was nice. I’d think there’d be better luck with a busy patio. Bummer.
