This was such a great experience. The igloo was decorated very tastefully. It was warm and cozy inside and the views were fantastic. I can’t say enough about the food being so tasty. The portions are small so if you’re a big eater, you may need more. But the Wagyu burgers And the grilled cheese shots were fantastic. The s’mores dessert was a fun finale. The whole experience is a little pricey, but for a special occasion well worth it. My husband and I went and celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary and it did not disappoint! Would definitely do it again!

I didn’t know what to expect when I made a reservation for myself & five of my friends to celebrate my 60th birthday but I was in for the best time. As soon as you walk in you are struck with the elegance of the bar area. Wait staff were very helpful & the view of the East River & Queens was stunning. We were treated incredibly well by our waitress, Elizabeth. The food was amazing & inventive. I would have liked the bar to have more choices, such as I would have loved a kir royale but that wasn’t available. Even though, we had a fabulous time.

Solid destination for Brunch with quick service and large portion sizes. Cocktails are well made and arrive quickly with a lot containing tequila if that’s your thing! Our drinks were served in plastic glasses/tumblers which for us was the difference in 4 or 5 stars. Overall, I’d definitely recommend and plan to go back.
