Had an open table reservation and when I got there the bartender said they don’t use open table anymore and didn’t try to accommodate us. Made for a difficult evening had to sit in a hot back corner. So don’t make a resy here and expect to get a table

Menu is extremely limited. Order the chicken dip, zero to no chicken was in it and they managed somehow to burn the nacho chips. Sliders were average at best.

Vegan sauage was yummy along with the mini pretzels. I love the view but it is very windy. Wish their was a way to make special request for ordering food online, instead I had to ask the server aferwards. Cracker Jacket drink was very interesting, would not reccomend.

View was great, ordering food and drinks was super easy and convenient! However, it was very hot with no shade. Some covering should be offered.

Hated the experience, you can only spend about an hour until they ask you to leave, and it wasn’t like we didn’t spend somewhere close to $80 at least, needless to say my first and last time going there!
