The best Christmas dinner of all time! Service was perfect and the entertainment and energy was next to none. People of all ages were dancing, eating, celebrating and having the time of their lives. Dancing on chairs, breaking plates- it was the best time. We had our kids with us because it was Christmas of course and they left saying they wish they could go to Ilios every night. It made our trip and I’m so glad we found this for our holiday. Very memorable.
