Went for top golf but food was apart of the package, even though we didn’t want to eat. The cheese sauce used on the nachos was pretty heavy and borderline gross…regular shredded melted cheese would have been so much better. The falafel sandwich and fries were all great though. The top golf malfunctioned on us but they were amazing and gave us another booth and extended our play. Unfortunately the curtains looking over the TD entrance couldn’t close enough to cut down on the glare so the screen was light and harder to see than the more internal booth. Waitstaff was extraordinary and did everything they could to help us out and make up for deficiencies!
