The food is good. Lots of choices. Good service. They do add a 3% charge to food and beverage’s orders to “allow them to pay their staff well?) are they paying a higher wages? Not sure how that should affect the tip? I would rather it just be baked into the prices. You can ask for it to be removed. Tables are very close It is loud. But still would go back.
