First time in the igloo. Had a great experience. It was a little colder than I thought it would be but it was fine. We went for my son’s birthday and nothing really excites him but he loved it! He kept saying how happy he was that we went there! Staff were super friendly, our waiter was pleasant and seemed like a very hard worker. Overall great experience and I plan on going back!
