    The service was atrocious and the food was just OK. We were kept waiting in the freezing cold even though we had a brunch reservation. Apparently the line outside was for people going to view the Christmas decorations. When we finally were let in, we waited for the hostess for over 10 minutes. Our server made sure to add a 20% tip to our bill. We usually add more, but 20% was more than enough.

    The croutons in the Cesar salad were delicious. Pricing range for the meals was decent. Appetizer price range could have been lower for the amount you got but it is NYC.

    The food was good, service was ok, the Christmas decor was amazing and the vibe was fun. Probably a one time experience for us, but we enjoyed it!

    We had to leave b/c no one ever came to our table. We had to ask someone to wipe down our table b/c it never was. It took more than 30 minutes after our scheduled reservation time to get seated meanwhile there were many tables open. Again, no server or restaurant staff ever showed to our table, no one around to even tell, so we left 10 min after being seated.

    This was a truly awful experience. We weren’t seated for our 1pm reservation until 1:40. We were sat at a table that wasn’t set. Water came eventually and was never refilled. Soda was served in plastic solo cups. A server never arrived, so a manager took our order. The food, which was on par with bowling alley birthday party food, was lukewarm or completely cold. The sliders looked and smelled like they had just come out of a microwave at Burger King, the Caesar salad was a plate of romaine with a deluge of dresssing and the bowl of French onion soup had the consistency of an onion gravy. We asked for the check three times, with the last request going to the manager who took our order. Patrons who were sat after us had their menus taken off their tables and out of their hands by the servers who declared they were no longer offering that menu. The management staff on the floor was clearly overwhelmed. This restaurant is struggling to find a balance between the Frosty’s Experience and non-Frosty’s patrons. I would not recommend theater patrons going here during the holidays.

    We had a 12:30 reservation and was not seated until 1:30. We were finally seated and it was freezing at our table so we asked to be moved. Upon moving no one waited on us for about 15 min. We stopped another waiter, JC. He attended to us immediately and was very nice. The only thing we really liked was the Holiday Decorations. I was disappointed. Food was just Ok.
