Dining is described both as enjoyable and, at times, as inconsistent.
Many reviewers say the food is good or better than they expected, and several mention eating in the dining room or compliment specific meals.

Staffing and call-bell delays are concerns
Some reviews report long waits for help and delayed responses to call bells.
A recurring complaint is that residents experience delays when they need assistance, with several stories describing long waits for help with changing, toileting, or getting pain or other scheduled care. Some writers also mention nights or weekends feeling worse due to staffing, and others describe missed meals or slow communication from front desk or supervisors. There are also a few reviews that balance this by saying communication and resolution improved after a call to management.
