We took our father in law to Tad's for his birthday after climbing Multnomah Falls in October. We called ahead and asked if there was seating for 14. They said come in 20 minutes. When we arrived they weren't ready for us and had us wait for another 20 minutes. Our waitress from the very beginning was very unfriendly and felt put out by our number in our party. After 45 minutes of beginning there we FINALLY got our food. Which was horrible. The kids mac n cheese had NO flavor for 5 dollars a bowl, when we asked for it to be taken back they refused to compensate it, and actually told us it was our child that doesn't know good mac n cheese when he's served it. The chicken and dumplings was SO bland. We had a birthday cake that we wanted them to bring to the table as a surprise and to our surprise when we received our bill they charged easy person a 2.00 desert fee. There was 14 in our party. My husband at that point went to go speak with management when they were very confortational and aggressive towards him telling him they weren't going to do anything for him and that we'd better leave. The whole staff was standing around like it was a show. The wifes took the kids to the car and were followed by 2 waiters that got into a parked car next to us and spun up gravel at us. While my husband was in trying to rationalize the 300.00 dollar bill that we got for the WORST service and food EVER. I felt as if we were unfairly treated, they have a bunch of young kids working there with a big chip on there shoulder with no regards to good service. They finally took the mac n cheese off our bill. Thats IT. We proceeded to photograph our itemized bill with a zero tip, which the bill came too 295 and some change. If you have a big party and you want great fast warm service DO NOT go to Tads. They DO NOT like kids there as well. It was the most uncomfortable dining out experience I've ever had. BE CAREFUL. VERY EXPENSIVE POOR FOOD AND SERVICE.
Cons: parking,long wait, service,poor food, expensive,slow,rude
