    The chest wasn’t friendly at all and lack of experience and extremely and unusual slow. Everything else good. Wait time was way too long too.

    Reservations were delayed by over an hour, ventilation needs to be improved and though it was extremely busy there appeared to be enough staff however they were not all actively working.

    The experience was excellent! In the beginning, though, we had to wait for over an hour because it’s Christmas Day! Understandably, nonetheless a bit frustrating. Ty did a good job in serving us! Did not have to wait too long for the beverages. Food was excellent as always! Karina was very very entertaining! Loved every moment! Although I did forget my son’s second refill of Shirley Temple, everything else was just enjoyable!

    We waited over 1hour even with a reservation. I found out that they took walk ins and made everyone else wait. Very disappointing!
