    Too large a cover for mediocre band. Servers were hard to find but Patrick at bar was wonderful and attentive. Music mediocre. Supposed to be Jimmy Buffet night but played other artists. Back up singers were off key. Disappointed

    We sat outdoors as that is where the stage is. We had a great time. Fans would have made the heat more tolerable.

    We had an amazing night there with friends - the band was awesome, the service was great and even though it rained hard for a while, Motorworks did a wonderful job getting things dried off and the band playing as soon as it was over!

    Great area, but you need outdoor fans on the patio. It was very hot and no breeze.
