I had not tried this restaurant though it has been open for some time. A few weeks ago, my wife and I decided to try something different, so we went to Coyote Sams. During our first visit, we noticed the service was rather poor (no silverware, slow to refill drinks, incomplete food order) and we overheard a waitress complaining to other customers that they don't have assigned tables...so each table is up for grabs according to her. We were seated facing the West windows and were blinded by the 7-8:00 sun. There were no shades or blinds on the windows. I noticed other customers having to scoot around to avoid being blinded. This place has been opened for a couple of years...and NO blinds??? The excessively bright sunlight did reveal an extreme amount of dust on the wooden booths and cob webs....uggg. The food on this visit was good and actually good enough that we thought we would return...but sit somewhere else !! Our second visit was 2-3 weeks later. Service hadn't changed, but our opinion did abruptly when I was served a salad with a small 1/4"" long grasshopper laying dead under the honey-mustard dressing. All the waitress could say was.... ""oh"". No manager came, no apology came, no excuse even came. Just ""OH"". The remainder of the food didn't seem up to caliber compared to our previous visit, but finding dead bugs in food may have effected our appetite. Needless to say - we will not return.
Pros: rustic decor
Cons: service, food, atmosphere
