Great holiday environment. Food was subpar. Kitchen is pumping it out as quickly as possible for the crowds. It was obvious by the presentation/warmth of meals. Maybe it is to be expected on such a day?

The sandwiches came with so much fries, it was ridiculous. I took half of my entree back to have for lunch tomorrow. The music was soft and the noise level too so it was easy to talk to your meal companions. Would come here again for a special occasion as the prices are a little too high for everyday for me.
