   Service was non existent, we waited for several minutes to be seated, waited several more minutes, no one came to the table to offer drinks or brought menues, noticed at least two other tables not getting any service, so we left

   They said they had no record of our reservation (made through open table), but they made sure to get us a table asap soon as they could, which was appreciated!

   Our waiter Liam was great. The food was good. Would have like to see more options on the menu. Loved looking out at the water and being close to MusicFest so we could leave our vehicle there and walk to the concert.

   Slow service. Waiter forgot to place order for fries, ( ordered wings that are over priced $20 , and do not come with fries) Shirley Temple was $8 !! No alcohol, so no idea why it would be that much. Food was good, just very limited menu, would have much rather sat inside to have more variety of choices.

   Great night, weather was perfect, dinner was really good. Staff were just a hopping as it was the night of music fest so everyone was eating there before walking over to the park.

   The $25/per person entrance took forever to process, the radio was very loud until the music started. The music was marginal, the grilled chicken was extremely dry, the burger was okay, the sweet potato fries were great. The server was young but did his best, the appetisers, drinks and meals were poorly coordinated. I would not go back.
