    It was very busy with large groups for holiday luncheons. As such, the service was slow and you had to make an effort to get the attention of the wait staff. The food was passable but not memorable.

    When I arrived there were only boosters tables available. The recepción desk did not cooperate to help us locate a table but a very nice young server helped us to locate an excellent table. Without his cooperation we had not been able to sit down confortable. Very nasty and luck of taste at the reception. Don't know if we will be back .
