Birthday Party · 34 guests · June 2026 · Main Dining Room
Food and service were a true standout. The venue was perfect for family event. Wasn't too noisy, warm and and we had enough space to move about to mingle with our guests.
Only that the parking was a little tricky. Many 2 hour parks available nearby and disabled parking right out the front. Our event was over 3hrs so that made it a little tricky to manage.
