We were actually in an igloo on the outdoor patio. Most of our food was served cold. The food wasn’t great either. The service was okay but I think we were an afterthought being in the igloo. I wouldn’t recommend the igloo but I also wouldn’t recommend eating inside the restaurant bc it’s loud, very difficult to have conversation. There are plenty of other better options in Columbia. Thus might be a better option for just a bar

The food and service was excellent. Margaritas were very good. Only comment is I wish you had a higher end margarita with better tequila and floater. Otherwise fantastic.

This is our second year with the igloo experience. It is after Christmas so not as fun and festive outside in the igloos and I wish ours had been decorated with more festive lights (white lights with a little gold beads. Other igloos had multi color lights. The serve was good and the drinks too. They ran out of all their red wines!!!

Definitely a unique brunch in a clear igloo. The menu was eclectic and everything tasted great. When the sun was shining, we had to open the vents since it was getting too warm. We ordered 2 items off the puppy menu and he enjoyed both. The mimosa flight was great with something for everyone’s taste.

We enjoyed a birthday event in one of the igloos. It was a lot of fun and festive, but our server was not attentive. I asked for water twice and another cocktail and never got any of them. It did not seem that the restaurant was that busy but I hate having to ask for things multiple times. The Christmas cocktail menu is fun highly recommend going with a group.
