    The food was amazingly fantastic. But there was a door that kept being opened that let in freezing cold air, that made the dining uncomfortable. That said, the staff was fantastic & the food well worth it.

    We spent 700 dollars , and they wanted a cover charge to hear the band. The valet charges per hour, 5 dollars so instead of a set fee. Money hungry
