    Hi Angel, thank you for your review. We're glad you enjoyed your meal and the service overall. We do apologize for the coffee situation. Unfortunately, even the best machines can break down from time to time and we understand it was a bit of a letdown. We're actively working on getting it fixed and appreciate your patience. We will have everything up and running for your next visit.
