"The food is very delicious. The portions are big. The staff are very friendly and helpful. However, it’s really very cold inside. I think the air conditioning isn’t set properly, and this takes away from the enjoyment of the meal."

"Great food and our waitress was so so nice . The interior was very cool and unique, when we ordered dessert it was a bit slow but worth the wait. Overall a very nice experience !"
