    We have tried several times to go to this restaurant, but no matter how many times we've tried, it is never opened. We had a reservation but the restaurant was closed.

    There were not a lot of people there, but it took over 30 minutes for our meal to be served. And the server did not know much about the menu. He had to go and ask before he could respond to our questions. He did not give us his name, so I can't tell you that.

    We made a reservation here on a Sunday evening as a way to enjoy the evening light before a movie. When we arrived, we mentioned that we had tickets for a movie in an hour. We were finally served our entrees 55 minutes later, and just had time to gulp down our sandwiches before dashing off. To be fair, the maitre d' and our waiter mentioned that they were badly understaffed that night (half an hour into our wait), and were trying to make it right for us. If they can get their staffing act together this could be a nice place for a summer dinner.

    I wish this wasn't just a seasonal place. The food was SO yummy & they were more than accommodating to my 8 month old son. He tried everything my Mom & I had. Our server Javier was wonderful with checking on us but also letting us just sit, nosh on the yummies, & enjoy the beautiful weather. I will definitely be back soon. We even got a burger to go for my hubby & they didn't bring it until we had asked for the check. It was still hot when we got it home & it was cooked perfectly. I'm a chef & training Sommielier so have to say that this was quite impressive for a "seasonal" "pop-up" restaurant!!!!!

    The service was very bad. The place had appx 6 tables and we waited and waited. We started with drinks and they were out of our first two choices. The food was fair, nothing to write home about.

    This reservation was made based on an OpenTable email that spotlighted it...I immediately made it my top choice for my birthday w/ my wife. We were very turned off by the fact that there were maintenance & decor workers all around us for the entire time setting up for an "after party" event. They were discussing what to do, where to place things, & then executing these things while we tried to dine. We felt that we were in the way & just wanted to leave instead of staying to relax & enjoy the evening as we intended. This coupled w/ the server not knowing the menu or what was in the drinks & therefore proceeded to read everything off a notepad...by the time he finished reading we just felt overwhelmed! While I would like to give it another try, my reluctance is that we might encounter more of the same if we aren't proactive in finding out of another event.

    We accidentally ran into this pop-up restaurant on the roof of the mall. It is not easy to find. We were very surprised, it is like a beach lounge. We had a wonderful outdoor dinner with nice wine. Certainly recommend to try this one.
