    Our server was amazing. Every single worker was so friendly and so helpful the entire experience. It was a fun night and we could not be happier with how our dinner/birthday celebration went.

    We had a wonderful time. Food and service, with Darius, were great. It's a bit pricey but we knew that going in. I do wish the booths were more comfortable, softer and bigger, since you are there a while. It would be nice if you were a bit higher for the angle of fondue usage and we are tall. Also would love someone to come wipe off burner area after messy cheese course, but that's probably just me. ;)

    Thank you so much for dining with us! We are happy to hear that Darius treated you guys to a perfect night out!

    I think they were severely understaffed. It took 15 minutes to be seated after arriving on time for our reservation. We didn’t get the $20 squishmallow that was requested as part of the reservation. Before dessert was put in front of us, the server took payment, which felt odd — most likely he was trying to leave after a long shift. The whole experience probably 2 hours 40 minutes when it should’ve been closer to 2 hours, simply because the service wasn’t available.

    Hey, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We're glad to hear that you enjoyed our food, but we're sorry to hear about the service you received.

We will definitely address these issues with our team to ensure a better experience in the future. We also would like to thank you for recognizing that your reservation may have came across us on a short staffed night.
