    Beautiful place, but that’s it. Not the best service or taste. Tourist place, nice to go one time only to take pictures. Won’t be coming back.

    The ambiance and service are great; the food is ok (some things are really good, others are average). A bit too noisy for the expected experience.

    Service was lovely and it’s beautiful there. But the food was truly subpar. Definitely not worth it.
