Our waiter, Numen (spelling?) was FABULOUS! He made our night. He was so sweet and incredible. Was so attentive and made us laugh. He was also the bartender and made amazing drinks. Food was just ok. We don’t live in the area but would’ve went back for him!

The ambiance is impeccable here. Full of childhood nostalgia, and solid food. Great bonus to take home souvenir cups with a drink purchase.

Loved our server, Jessica! She was very considerate when she noticed that our young grandson was upset during the “thunderstorms”. She took the time to explain that the noise was like a music recording and that the lightning was simply lights blinking on and off. Overall, we had a great food and fun for the kids experience.

Service was slow, food was bland. Kids portions small for the costs. Ambiance is dated. Too costly for what it’s worth.
