Vibe: Stuffy setting, pricey sips
The poor vibe at this restaurant is a real party-crasher. The ambiance is anything but pleasant, with dated decor, ineffective cooling, and an overall stuffy feel that squashes your appetite. The overpriced drink menu is an eyebrow-raiser, neither the quality nor the selection provide any respite to the thirsty patrons.
Bad Ambiance
Stuffy restaurant with outdated decor, no effective cooling, uncomfortable.
Perks: Groups find solace here

The outdoor setting may be appealing, however, it may also feel crowded due to large parties and other diners. Surprisingly, large groups are accommodated well, with decent reviews regarding spacious seating and pleasant service provided by the staff.
