    My partner and I had a great experience! We got some drinks at the bar first, then we got seated in the iconic train car for dinner. Our server Simone was amazing! She was super friendly, recommended good items on the menu, and she was all around so wonderful! The drinks were strong and had nice flavors, the food was absolutely delicious! The restaurant is also stunningly beautiful! Completely recommend!!

    It was fantastic. The only issue we had was that the food was kind of slow to come out, but I think we were there during a big rush. The server apologized profusely without us even making a point of it even offered to comp some of our food. Altogether excellent service
