    Our experience in the restaurant were very good. Food was delicious and served without a lengthy wait. However, in the music venue, there could be improvement. Two people serving drinks, one upstairs and one downstairs. They seemed swamped and one of our drinks wasn't delivered until I went downstairs to get it. We were told there was self-service water but the bottle was empty so we were quite thirsty through most of the entertainment. That was disappointing but I still love this venue. They need more help it seems.
