Our experience in the igloo was very good overall. The service was engaging and responsive. The food and drinks were excellent. The 'smoke plate' was great as a starter. Our steaks, crab cakes and salmon were wonderful and cooked perfectly. The birthday dessert was delicious! We'll be back again next season! Thank you.

Service was great. Felt rushed from the beginning though. The food was…mediocre at best. Came out within minutes of us ordering, which didn’t sit right with us.

Service was great! Parker did a great job. He was very good with explaining the new menu items and welcoming our guests from out of state. Wished the scallops would have still been on the menu. But the salmon was very good. We all had a great time.

Van Acres igloo experience was so fun! They have blankets, pillows, and space heaters running so not cold at all! Food was excellent!!!Our waitress was quick, very pleasant, and helpful. Only sad part was the view or location, you either see a parking lot of the building.

Only complaint: menu was dirty with dried food on it, the bluetooth speaker was really dirty with food and greasy fingerprints, and the Dyson air purifier external filter was clogged with dust and needed a good cleaning--new filter. Everything else was amazing.

We celebrated "Galentines" and had a White Elephant exchange. It was the perfect setting. The seats were very comfortable and the blankets were a great touch. It was nice having the Dyson blade space heaters that we could control. The drinks were excellent, worth every penny. The food was gourmet and very well presented. Our server Parker was attentive and did well for the majority. The only exception was the bill where we were charged for wrong items. Easily fixed and he was a sweetheart to talk to about it. You are only given 1 and 1/2 hours for the "experience" so if want dinner and appetizers...you have to know what you want quickly and eat fairly quick as there would not be a whole lot of idle time. The only disappointment was the lack of snow for ambiance. I would still come back in a heartbeat for this experience . Apparently so would many others for as long as we had to wait for our reservations.

Jean, Thanks for celebrating with us! We're so glad you enjoyed the atmosphere, drinks and food offerings. Parker will also be delighted to know he made such a positive impact on your experience. Cheers! The Van Acre Team
