My son loved the mackerel sandwich. I had the pistachio sandwich. They are both good. The vibe is great and you can definitely hang out here with your friends for hours. It is by the river so it has a great view too

We go there after the candle light concert. It’s just nearby.
The food is really nice and fresh, if they could upgrade a little on the sitting area, I’m sure the profitability will go up. But luckily they don’t, so it’s paying medium price for premium food in an easy and chill environment.

The place looks amazing, and I was very much looking forward to eating here. My burger was tasty but nothing really exceptional. Unfortunately the cocktail (Tin Man) was very disappointing. It was served with an aluminum straw (which is fun given the name) however also making it impossible to drink due to the high amount of crushed ice and the minimal amount of cocktail. After ditching the straw I was hoping to get a taste of the cocktail itself, but this literally tasted like nothing. I got my friends to taste it just to have their opinions. They all agreed.

The prices are steep, they already add 15% tip to your bill, so keep this in mind. Personally I like to decide the tip for myself… service is friendly.

We ate breakfast here. The French toast was amazing. The other offerings at the buffet (eggs, meats, cheese, pastries, juices) were also good. Staff were very helpful and attentive.
