Wonderful Valentine’s Day experience! We were able to dine in an igloo on the terrace. The vibes were immaculate & our server was super attentive and pleasant! The food was so good and presentation was lovely. Definitely a spot worth checking out (& they validate parking!)

Weird table next to the server station and the door to the hotel was open so passerbys were looking in on dinner. Quite odd

Took over 30 minutes for our meal and then the food wasn’t hot. One burger was salty and the rest of meals were below par expect for the kids grilled cheese which was fantastic.

We ended up here unexpectedly and really, really enjoyed the food. It was super accommodating for dietary needs like veggie and gluten free. It felt like a hidden gem!

Food for one diner was poorly prepared, returned to the kitchen. Then another diner waited ten minutes after all others had been served. Initially we waited 39 minutes for our food. Previous visits were far better.
