Doody's Totoket Inn

She made us wait for 40 minutes to order and if one of us didn't go to the bar to tell someone we were hungry and wanted to order, we would have still been waiting. She finally came over to take our order. We noticed that on the specials menu, they were serving prime rib. About 4 of us ordered it. We ordered the larger portion. The waitress who was about 7 feet tall and who did NOT have a pleasant additude or personality for that matter, took our order. She came back about 30 minutes later to tell us that in order for all 4 people to order that, we needed to get the small portion because they didn't have enough prime rib, with no apology. First of all, if you have this on your special

Great place for a meal. I stopped there for lunch. Friendly service and a full bar.
