    Over priced for okay food. Nothing special about the food. We ordered the spinach artichoke dip that was not good. It was ALL spinach. No cheese or sauce, very few artichoke hearts. Inedible. I had the salmon and it was just okay. My husband had the lobster roll which he said was good. We each had two cocktails which cost about $20 each! Bill was almost $200! Beautiful inside and under the amazing dome!

    Ballard's brings a different experience by virtue of being in the Atrium. Service was great except we arrived early and bar was full.
