    Overall great experience. Service was excellent. Our server was very on top of things and Abhi made my partner's day extra special. Food could have been a little more polished for the price point and there is no shade to get any reprieve from the sun but otherwise a very lovely day.

    That sounds like a fantastic experience! If you’re thinking about sharing that as a review, here’s a polished version you could post: --- **10/10 Experience at Opal Lounge!** My fiancé and I had an amazing time at the Opal Lounge! The atmosphere was incredible—chic, vibrant, and so welcoming. The food was delicious with a wide variety of options to choose from, and everything we tried was top-notch. The space itself is absolutely beautiful, perfect for a night out. We also really enjoyed the hookah—it was smooth and flavorful. All around, it was a perfect evening. 10/10 would definitely recommend!
