Food was really good but I feel like communication with the manager can use improvement. I had to reach out the night before to confirm when they'd be arriving to set up and there was miscommunication regarding the dessert option that I didn't find out until the day of the event. The order should have included an entrée, side, dessert and drink but there was no dessert served day of. They were aware that I had inquired about the dessert and specifically mentioned what we wanted served. I'm not sure where the misunderstanding happened, but I feel they should have reach out to confirm the menu options if they were unsure/unable to serve the dessert option. Again, the food was great and the staff was friendly but for how much was paid there should have been better communication.

Food was very good and our guests enjoyed it. However, the wait for food orders was 35 to 45 minutes. Thankfully we also had an ice cream truck that guests could visit and have their ice cream while they waited for their lunch order.

How fresh my sandwich still was even though I was late. Great flavor, and the lady who helped me with sauces was great. She had lovely service, and spoke to me by name.

Customer service, the food, the atmosphere. They stayed during a storm, on top of all that did I say the food was great? Because it's soo good!
