   We go every year for my wife’s birthday and this year was no different. The wait wasn’t very long. The service was good. The show and the food were also very good. If I had 1 complaint it’s that the prices are significantly higher than last year!

   Food was delicious, it was a packed night with tons of kids. The wait staff was running around crazy but overall we still had a good meal. Next time we’ll skip a Saturday night or go a little later.

   Way too noisy. They need better fans. Ended the night with headache from the noise, and cooking smell on my clothes. Food and value is very good

   Was Seated promptly, but at a cramped table. Chef was dismal, didn’t do the entertaining culinary performances and theatrical flair. No Hat Tricks.

   Very average. It was my Grandson’s bday and I called ahead. They did not do anything special, chef was boring and waitress barely spoke English . Poor service . We brought our own cake she could not even provide dessert plates, she gave us bowls. Used to be much better.

    They take way too many reservations. We waited 30 minutes for a table with a reservation. It’s a factory. Very expensive for the service and seating arrangements. Not happy and would not go back.
