Absolutely amazing and unique experience!! The terror igloos are absolutely worth it for the overall value of the experience. Food and drinks were delicious, although service was very slow, and our waiter hardly checked on us at all. Would definitely return!!

Food was very good, service was great, and I was able to make a short notice reservation late on a Saturday night. And of course, we had something chocolate! The only issue is that we could feel the cold air every time the door opened - but then again this is NYC in November! Maybe they could put some type of barrier around the door to help control or redirect the draft. Overall, we had a great time!
