    We had actually booked for a larger group but ended up with less due to roads conditions. The Banquet staff were very flexible and were able to seat us in a quieter area. Place was quite vibrant and had all sorts of retro elements throughout the venue. There were a ton of activities from bowling, to table games, darts etc. The food was fantastic and service was great. We went on a non-game night so that was helpful for parking and walking around ICE DISTRICT

    The appetizers were fantastic. The oysters were very fresh, the olives were flavorful, and the croquette was outstanding. The linguine was decent, but we weren't impressed with the sauce. The chocolate dessert was also very good, providing a nice, sweet note to finish off a lovely dinner.
