Truly enjoyed the Brunch and Show. Fabulous food and service. Would definitely recommend it to others. Tips: when you arrive you have to show your ID…must be 21 to get into it; you check in outside then wait to be called in; then are seated by the hostesses; then you have 20 minutes to get your order in before the show starts.

Second time visiting, had a blast. A little disappointed by the lack of bottomless mimosas, but still enjoyed ourselves

Service was excellent. The decor is spectacular. Cocktails were good All agreed Truffle Mac and cheese was great Companions liked the the Brussels, I didn’t. The sauce was lemon-based instead of balsamic, which is my preference. Roast chicken was ok, diner would not order again. Redfish was reported to be good enough to order again Crab beignets had nice sauce and nice texture but the beignets were too bitter to eat. Short ribs were tough and required sawing to separate the bites. The gravy was ok. Overall, would not return.
