Food options are small bites and perfect for a before show experience or to meet up with friends before a night on the town. Drinks are creative and tasty. The view is amazing. High top chairs and tables are uncomfortable. Unable to fit legs under high top table due to design and not much back support on chairs even though they have a back.
