Claim Jumper

WORSE SERVICE EVER!! We went out to celebrate my dad's birthday. We ordered our food and received it in a timely fashion..... other than our son's order (calzone). Our waitress came back and said that it would come out soon, and that baked foods normally take longer to cook than other meals. By the time everybody else was finished eating, we had to waive her down to ask where our son's food was.... Turns out she forgot to put the order in. Anyway, this is the THIRD time this has happened over the course of a year. That will be the last time we dine at Claim Jumper in Palmdale.
First time visiting this locale since they opened. So I sat at my favorite place; the bar with my wife and....Claim Jumper is no different than any other multi-million/billion dollar corporate restaurant chain. The bartenders don't care to know your name and they are trained to measure your liquor with their thimble; I mean, their jigger. I mean, c'mon guys, you're in a rural location with primarily local customers vs. visitors. Cater to your population, they're the ones to sustain your existence here in Palmdale. Oh, and beware, my credit card was hacked about 5 minutes after using it and leaving the restaurant. Yup, got an e-mail from my card company's security department. And I gave it 2 stars 'cause the food was still good.
Good food with great service
24oz Ribeye steak !
I love most Claim Jumpers, but this one seems in a different category. The space is open with lots of regular tables and garish antlers all over the place that reminded me of the mess hall at summer camp when I was a kid in the Boy Scouts. The seating and ambiance is just wrong which is huge distraction from the dining experience I expect from a Claim Jumper. The food and service was OK.
