Needs Some Work

Tried the reopened Carvers in Sandy Fri. night. Parking lot was full so very hopeful. However, upon entering, all hopes dashed. Lack of Host or Hostess at front desk. Surly host when he finally came out of the back. Desperately need more than one person at the front desk on Fri and Sat so people are not standing around clueless. Atmosphere was horrible. Put some tablecloths on the tables or get new ones that don't look like they fell out of the back of a semi going down the freeway. Clean up the place and improve the look. Very dated and dungeon like. Food just OK, nothing that would make me run back for. The only good thing I can think of was we were lucky enough to have a great waiter who used to be the bar manager. I noticed that the tables around us were not so lucky and had poor to non-existent service and poorly trained. PS What happened to the great dark bread they used to serve? Definitely need to add blue cheese salad dressing to their list--afterall it is a steak house!!!

• Pros: Great Waiter
• Cons: Atmosphere, Host/Hostess

Over rated

We went to Carvers last night for the first time. We were very dissapointed. My husband had prime rib. It was very very thinly sliced and was not cooked properly. I had the filet mignon which was burnt on the outside, not cooked how I had ordered it and was so salty that I couldn't really get the taste of the meat. The servcie was very poor. Our waitress never refilled our water glasses and seemed to be to busy to both with us.

• Pros: Great atmosphere
• Cons: Poor service

Great ambience for sure! But I wasn't too impressed by their prime rib, it lacked flavor.. I didn't like the horseradish sauce, I'd prefer actual horseradish. But everything else was great. Great service, great atmosphere.
