    The food and service was wonderful. After we left the restaurant with our validated parking stub - I placed my validated parking in meter- the parking gate device still gave me a $40.00 parking bill… I honestly was shocked. The gate person was kind enough to intervene and let me go- but really? 40 bucks is crazy steep— AFTER validation.
