Super great ambience with really cool light up shimmer drinks! I loved all of the details in the decor with the Jinx photo op and Vi’s punching game. It was cool to be around other fans too and hearing them talk about the show. I bought one of the limited edition mugs and its a really great size with a thumb rest on the handle. To be honest though the razzle shimmer was not my favorite, but you get the drink for the cool souvenir shimmer vial anyway. Its a really nice size I can reuse for everyday drinks and it lights up! I would definitely go again.

Came here to celebrate my birthday. The waitress (I forgot her name) was amazing. She was very attentive to me and my rowdy group of friends. The DJ played hip hop bangers all night, perfect for dancing.
