    Wouldn’t call this an “experience” it’s a couple of tables put in the lobby of a business center with 4 animatronic polar bears in front of you. The food was okay for the price point but the food took 45 mins+ to arrive at our table. Had to ask the waiter twice where our food was because the only available parking was the garage next door charging $10 an hour almost seems like the deposit is there so you can’t change your mind when you arrive.

    Appetizers were great, especially at happy hour. Entrees were on the very salty side, very salty. One big turn off, I hit my wine glass and about half spilled out. The waiter grabbed it and said "let me get you another," rushed off with a new glass, cool, right? No, he charged for both glasses without asking me. Poor move, won't go back.
