Horacio is an exceptional server and got all of our special requests correct. It was an evening with live music on the patio so quite busy. Food was good and the ambience was nice on the cold evening.

Great over-all with excellent service. Would have preferred a more varied menu with a couple of additional entrees- possibly a chicken option? and possibly a vegan option. Ceasar salad, bread and soup were very good~ and the flavored butters. A little chilly, but not bad considering is so open air inside. Savanah was a wonderful server xoxo

This was a great way to kill some time before dinner. The staff was great. Checked in with us often to see if we needed anything. Played for 1.5 hours. The simulator also had a variety of other games aside from golf like soccer, baseball, football, carnival games, etc… which made it fun for everyone. Room was clean and spacious just a little warm even though the temp was set at 68 degrees. It was pricey at $30 per person per hour. The hour goes by really fast.
