Mori was helpful and very efficient. The food choices were not to my liking but I guess as a whole I’m sure most people enjoyed it. Would be better for a few more dinner options.

What a delightful evening! The atmosphere is lovely, the live music was nice and the narrative on what you were passing was interesting. You do have to go upstairs to hear the narrative. In hindsight, I wish I had taken my coffee and dessert up there and enjoyed them while listening. The food was tasty. Nice variety. What is amazing? No, but quite enjoyable. Bread and dessert were especially nice. Best part, Morry my waiter! He was a gem, very good service and delightful to chat with. He will do well in life. Is it a bit odd to do solo? A little, very much parties and couples, but I would do it again. It was very relaxing.Torrie_D

My sister is epileptic and the light kept flickering whoch is a trigger for her. They moved the lighting to face the window so it wasn’t disturbing us, but then we couldn’t see out the window. However, the piano player was very talented, the servers were attentive and the food was delicious.
