    It was amazing. So tasty we went with kids and they were so nice to bring out toys for my kids to play with. The kids loved their pasta and I enjoyed the pistachio ravioli and the goat cheese dates. Husband had the tunisian rice bowl with lamb everything was top notch.

    Making the reservation was easy and we were seated right away when we arrived. It took a little bit for a server to come at first but the food arrived very soon after we ordered. My salmon was hot and very delicious. My husband had the chicken Parmesan which he said was good but a little cold. I also had the French Alexander drink which was very good! Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience.

    Food was great. Pics with Santa and the Grinch was amazing, kids loved it! But it’s was very expensive. I know you’re paying for the experience. But $300 for 2 adults / 2 kids for my 5yo to eat a few eggs … yikes. We’d do it again, but it would *feel* better if the kid’s prices were cheaper, with a paying adult, or something like that.
