We attended a wedding reception earlier in the fall and I must say this is a hidden gem of a venue!…read more The views are immaculate. The city skyline as the sunset was beautiful. There are definitely a lot of picturesque opportunities for social media. This was a perfect place for a wedding reception as it's part of the Marriott. I also love that there is also a Starbucks in the lobby as well. If you're wearing heels, be wary of the very lengthy flight of stairs you need to take to access the ballroom area. The food was brought in so we didn't eat the items from the venue menu. It was a dim sum meal and there was a lot of seafood-which caused us to leave early as my husband has a shellfish allergy. If you're in the market for a wedding venue, it will not hurt to put this place on your list to explore. I definitely recommend!

Greed is the keyword for today's story. As a duo I had a 5hr round of golf and I skipped playing…read morethe last 3 holes because the course was so backed up. In total it would've been at least 6 hours to play 18 holes with no break at the turn. They allow people to book tee times online during their "league outings" so I get stuck behind a group of 8 people playing one hole when I drove by. This isn't even counting all the other groups behind them waiting to play. Thank god we decided to book later than we wanted or I might've played 8hrs for one round. Why allow these kind of events and take online tee times at the same time. Greed is all it is. We saw multiple groups behind us quit and head home. So many groups left that while waiting to tee off on the 16th hole we ran into a group with the start time of 3:20pm. We started at 2:10pm..... For the price this course isn't really worth the hassle.

1 out of 5 -- "The Staff Alone Ruins the Entire Experience."…read more I don't usually leave reviews, but this place earned it. From the moment I walked in, the vibe was off. The staff here--mostly older guys--act like they're doing you a favor just by acknowledging you. Rude, dismissive, and flat-out unpleasant to deal with. It's like customer service retired years ago and no one told them. To make it worse, the place is wildly overpriced, especially for this time of year. There's zero justification for the rates they're charging, and absolutely nothing about the experience makes you feel like you're getting your money's worth. If you enjoy being talked down to and overpaying for the privilege, then sure, give it a shot. Otherwise, save your money and go literally anywhere else.

The food completely exceeded my expectations. The pizza was delicious, and the crust was honestly one of the best parts. Everything we ordered was fresh and flavorful. They also have a great selection of mocktails and drinks, which made it fun for everyone in the family. The service was fantastic from start to finish--friendly, attentive, and welcoming. Between the golf, great food, World Cup atmosphere, and excellent service, this is definitely a place we'll be coming back to again. Highly recommend for a family outing, date night, or watching the game with friends!

The patios are covered and they had big fans running down it wasn't too muggy! They even have game modes you can change! We did the longest range hit, and regular hitting in the circles! Service was great, our waiter stopped by frequently and even reminded us our time was about to run out. I did have a mule and was not a big fan of it honestly, not sure if it was the ginger beer or not. I also ordered the fried pickles which to my surprise had very little breading but honestly were so good with the buttermilk ranch! We all shared the chicken fried bites which were mouth watering!! There were a lot as well!! Overall such a fun experience and would definitely come back!

The space is large with bar seating, multiple "picnic" style tables for 4 to 6 people and a comfy pit by the fireplace and soon a patio deck. The owners Shriti and Paul were most welcoming, while spending a lot of time with our small group guiding us through the menu, offering suggestions and giving us a lesson on the their business, their challenges and goals. Their customer service skills and passion for their craft was impressive and addictive. I enjoyed a white wine Sangria, Pineaapple Mimosa and a pour of their Golden Rum.
