I have had three terrible experiences in a row at this Sizzler. All three times with food being under cooked. Forks and/or drinking glasses with dirt on them. The servers do not care about you unless you are a party of 10 or larger. The staff will argue with you over what is/isn't clean, as well as the management arguing with you over your experience.
