I made a reservation on open table. Everything was on point from beginning to end. The wait staff was friendly and professional. The food was delicious. We had the burger, pasta, and prime rib. The rotating dining was awesome. But the chocolate cake was AMAZING! Okay- don't was pricey but worth it for a special dinner while in NYC. I recommend it for a special occasion too! There was a live pianist too!! read more

The best thing I can say is that they have really good coffee. I am very particular about my coffee, and they get it right. But I need to stop right there. I have been a longtime customer of Marriott properties around the world. In fact, I even wrote a letter to J.W. Marriott back in August 2000 praising the wonderful service I received at the Grand Marriott Hotel in Bucharest, Romania. With all that being said, I ordered a cheese platter--what many would call a charcuterie board--and was extremely disappointed. What arrived looked like about $1.50 worth of cheese scraps arranged on a plate, yet it cost $28. I often order cheese boards when meeting people for business over coffee. Years ago, when the lounge at the Park Lane Hotel was open, their cheese board cost around $35 and came with an impressive variety and generous portions of quality cheeses. It felt like good value and was something I happily ordered repeatedly. I do not mind spending money. I am willing to pay for quality, presentation, and service. What I do mind is paying premium prices for something that feels dramatically overpriced for what is actually served. The coffee was excellent. Unfortunately, the cheese platter left me feeling disappointed and significantly diminished what otherwise could have been a much better experience. read more

My sweet hubby took me out on the town in my favorite city in the US, to celebrate my 70th birthday - and our 14th anniversary in March! He's a native New Yorker from Brooklyn, so it's always an adventure when we visit. We experienced a magnificent meal atop the Marriott Marquis Times Square Hotel - in the revolving restaurant, The View! From start to finish, the ambiance, the live piano music, the wait staff - the food - created a memorable night I shall cherish always! There were so many delectable items on the menu, it was hard to decide. We both chose the double-cut American Lamb Chops, flavorful and tender. We paired it with the smooth, elegant and red fruity flavors of the Pinot Noir. The hubby also had the Caesar salad, grilled broccoli and pomme puree. I ordered the creamed spinach and button mushrooms. DELICIOUS!!! The 360-degree view of the New York skyline at night is indescribable! A complete revolution takes about an hour. It was so breathtaking and serene, with the sounds of soft piano playing, muffled conversations, tinkling glasses and ebb and flow of laughter - we were there for two and half revolutions! It was easy to lose track of time - and we never felt rushed! We shall return! I highly recommend this restaurant for any occasion. Because the 'vibe' as the young people say, is right - and will promote only the most positive outcomes for whatever you have planned! *Special thanks to the wait staff for attending to us with such kindness and generousity. I regret that I have forgotten the names ( should have written them down) - a young man and a young lady - the night of March 21. They were top tier! read more

The View is definitely a unique NYC experience. The restaurant slowly rotates 360° while you eat, which is a really cool concept but can be a little disorienting at first Lol. Service was on point and the prime rib was easily the star of the show highly recommend it. Right on broadway in Midtown great place to check out if your visiting and need a post/pre show meal read more

Never went to the previous iteration so I can't comment on how it's changed, but Danny Meyer's USH has taken it over, and I had a great meal here. Called on a Saturday and got a reservation for the same evening. I tried: + Gin martini - excellent + Caesar salad - perfect + Prime rib - excellent + Mashed potatoes - perfect + The view chocolate cake - great + Vanilla ice cream - def recommend with the cake I loved the food, though I could take or leave the rotating restaurant concept (I realize that's the point but lol). Would try the date cake next time. read more

48 floors up to the Lounge at The View NY and we had an incredible time. Early for our reservation, we asked to sit at the bar for a drink before dinner. The Lounge has its own menu which includes their signature Katz's Martini and small plates. This was the perfect prelude to dinner which we had in the restaurant just one floor below. Located in the Theater district, the View is known for their rotating views of the NY skyline as they are NYC's only revolving restaurant. That's right -- the floor on the outer circle of the restaurant and the inner part of the building are slowly moving. It was pretty cool to see! Katz's Martini was a nod to Katz's Deli -- Brisket-washed gin with vermouth and pastrami spices, and a pickle. Camila, our server, gave us recommendations as we wanted to try basically everything on the menu. We started with the East Coast Oysters and the Jumbo Lump Blue Crab Cake. For dinner, I had the American Wagyu Picanha and my girlfriend had the Halibut. We split a side of mashed potatoes which were so good that I could've licked the plate. For dessert we went with the Coffee Toffee Date Cake along with an espresso martini and the Whipped and Swirled. Whipped and Swirled was a yummy dessert cocktail with Macallan Scotch, Rum, whipped cream and banana condensed milk. It was dessert in a glass! read more

What can I say? The View -- spectacular! The food flavorful; but premade! I ordered the TROFIE PASTA - order came out in less than 5 mins -- what does that tell you? There are NO variations or substitutions. The drinks are NOT made to order. Made in batches/WTH? Such a disappointment not the experience I expected -- crab cakes are "fried". You do not have an option for broiled . . . I expected so much more read more

Since the View re-opened I have wanted to give it a shot and with my husband's birthday coming up, I figured it was the perfect spot for a special dinner and it was even better than expected. You're greeted warmly at the host stand on the 3rd floor and escorted to the elevator where you're whisked to the 48th floor. We were greeted by the hosts in the restaurant and quickly escorted to our table which had a cool view of the W Hotel to start. Service was great across the board. Our server was professional, courteous and did a great job recognizing the birthday celebration. We started with a cocktail for me (Marquee Old Fashioned- outstanding) and a mocktail for Alp. We were served some delicious focaccia and then we received our appetizers of crispy fried artichokes and shrimp cocktail. The artichokes were a tad overdone but they were still light, crispy and delicious. We loved the shrimp. I had the ribeye with a side of fries and Alp had filet with mashed potatoes. My steak was delicious....tender and flavorful and the fries were great. Alp loved the filet and the potatoes. We did our best not to eat all of our steaks because we wanted to save room for the decadent chocolate cake we'd seen. That cake was outstanding and came with a caramel sauce that was good but it would have been just as delicious without it. We also ordered a Whipped And Swirled, which was like a boozy Magnolia Bakery banana pudding. That could have been its own dessert! Oh, and I haven't mentioned the namesake view! I absolutely loved the 360 degree view as we eat. It was really neat to view the skyline from so many perspectives (although when you're facing the New Jersey side, there's not much to see because there's a big piece of the building blocking the view for about 10 minutes, but honestly, are you going to miss seeing Weehawken???) We were there for about an hour and 45 minutes and almost made it back to where we started. I really enjoyed this and thought it was a perfect spot for a special dinner. It ain't cheap (with tip, our dinner was over $400) but if you deserve a special treat, this is a great place. read more

It was amazing!! The views from sunset into evening were beautifully New York. There are 2 areas... one for drinks and light appetizers or tapas and one for a full dinner. Make sure you are making reservations for the experience you desire because they are different bookings. We did drinks then went to dinner and it was seemless. My only complaint is that the drink menu is not consistent between the bars. The drink I fell in love with at the upper View area was not on the menu for dinner... our server understood and made it happen for us which made the experience even better! Definitely a must do if you are at the Marriott read more

When I came last month I knew I wanted to return for my 50th birthday. I had the Trofie pasta again which was still amazing. My husband ordered the swordfish, and we started with the Jumbo Lump Blue Crab Cake. Crab cake and trofie were consistent and as delicious as they were previously. He loved the swordfish. I kept 1 star this time for a side we'd ordered never arrived. Server didn't notice until we said it, and a song requested by the pianist was never played, before he left and presumably went home. Another player then appeared. Overall I had a great 50th birthday, received well wishes from everyone, can't wait to come back!!! read more

What a lovely spot to enjoy a cocktail before a show while waiting in the theatre district. The views are incredible and the ambiance is one that reminds you of the 60s and 70s but in the best way. The revolving restaurant and bar is one of a kind and made for a very special start to an evening out on the town. Service was friendly and attentive and we didn't feel rushed at all. Highly recommend! read more

First time at The View and had a great experience. We had the Prime Rib, Lamb Chops and Picanha (yes, a lot of meat!) for our entrees and not a miss - they were all excellent. The Brussels Sprouts and Fries for sides were also very good. The Chocolate Cake and Panna Cotta provided a nice finish to the meal. The revolving restaurant and festive decor added to the experience as did our server Lea who was very helpful and friendly. read more

Everyone should try a revolving restaurant sometime and this one is a good place to start. The view is excellent. It is basically a steakhouse in the sky. We started with the tuna carpaccio and, not to slight the entrees, it was the highlight. Fresh raw tuna pounded thin with a fruity olive oil, capers, a few slices of onion for texture-really excellent. I had the double cut lamb chops, medium rare, and they were both beautiful and tasty. The portion was very satisfying even for a very hungry person like myself. My companion had the picanha steak and gave me a few bites - it was well seasoned, properly cooked medium rare and wonderfully beefy. The service was friendly and timely. Of course the atmosphere is the main thing and it does not disappoint. Pro tip - the sides are not huge like I'm used to at steakhouses, where they are certainly to share. Here, the sides, though pricy, are sized for one. We shared the mashed potatoes and they were excellent but had I known the portion size, I would have ordered another side. For a gimmicky restaurant, the food and service are on point. As a New Yorker I can say it is worth a visit even if you live here. read more

We came for pre theater drinks and snacks. Walking into The View is stepping into a spectacle: you're up in the sky, 47-48 floors above Times Square, with the city rotating slowly around you. If you came for the views, you've picked the right spot. The whole place is built around that panoramic energy -- shimmering city lights, skyscrapers, and a sense of occasion. What Works Ambiance & Visuals The rotating dining room is the star. The movement is slow enough that you can soak in the skyline without feeling like you're on a ride. The lounge floor is especially nice if you want the view and a drink without committing to a full dinner. Mirrors, mood lighting, elegant design touches, live piano -- it's built for moments. That night as we were drinking we notice a commotion, and quickly realized there as going to be a a mixology demonstration. A Renowned mixologist from Milan was flown to tach the staff on the new cocktails, and we were so lucky to be in front of greatness. We got to taste all the cocktails, one was better than the other. We almost late to out broadway show read more

Just came to catch the view and have a cocktail or 2! The space is newly done with beautiful esthetics. On the 48th floor of the Marriott Marquis you get to lounge a top Times Square and revel in the view. The bar is beautiful.

I'll be back for the raw bar fare. Staff was lovely and suck a cool place to lounge. read more

The view at sunset was everything we had heard it would be. Stunning! It was pretty neat to have the restaurant slowly rotating as we dined. The pianist was an added bonus! My husband had the wagyu picanha steak with a side of potatoes. It was a little fatty (still delicious) but he said it was seasoned well. He loved the mashed potatoes! I enjoyed the crabcake (so meaty) and the Caesar salad. Very filling! For dessert we split a piece of cheesecake and it was delicious! This is a pricey restaurant but worth it for the view and a memorable experience! Staff was very accommodating and provided wonderful service. read more

I was skeptical coming here, thinking it was a tourist trap. I had also come here a few years ago in 2023 and it wasn't that great then. Back then, the food was not good and the decor seemed outdated. The signage also made it super confusing to find the restaurant. Since I've last eaten there, Danny Meyer's hospitality group has taken over and what great changes they've made! First, I can find the restaurant easily. So many clearly marked signs pointed me in the right direction. The food ended up being fantastic. I loved everything I ate. We had the shrimp cocktail, tuna carpaccio, caesar salad for shared appetizers and for myself, I had the wagyu picanha, mashed potatoes and NY cheesecake. I was also able to try some creamed spinach and the burger. Everything was delicious and cooked perfectly. There was literally nothing I didn't like. The ambiance was great too. It had a more upscale feel to it than the last time I dined there and the service was fantastic. Our server was phenomenal. Also, the value is great. I thought the prices were very fair for everything. All-in-all, I love this restaurant. It was a home run for me and I thoroughly enjoyed it, although the moving of the restaurant did make me a little motion sick if I stared at the movement too long. It was quickly fixed by looking back at my table. I can't wait to go back here! Thank you for the great experience, The View! You're definitely not a tourist trap like I thought. read more

Located at the Marriott Marquis in Times Square. The name of the place speaks for itself! The restaurant/lounge rotates, so you really do get a whole 360 degree view. Go there during sunset for the most beautiful views New York has to offer. You have the choice between sitting at the restaurant or lounge. I highly recommend the lounge for a more intimate clear setting (since the restaurant is at a lower floor than the lounge). However, the lounge doesn't offer the full service dinner menu - just bites, desserts, and raw bar options. I came for pre-dinner cocktails and wasn't disappointed. Cadillac Margarita - Patron Resposado, kalamansi, Grand Marnier, and chili oil powder. A slight twist on the classic margarita - the added chili oil powder adds a fun spice to the drink. Be warned that the spice level is a bit more than mild. Marquee Old Fashioned - Suntory Toki, cognac, shiso, peach, miso, brown butter, and honey. I actually prefer Japanese whiskey for my old fashioned, so this drink was perfect. The miso brown butter adds a nuttiness and depth, while the shiso/peach slightly elevate the classic old fashioned profile. Service was friendly and welcoming. Would recommend going here for a more quiet view of the City! read more

An unforgettable NYC dining experience with incredible food, service, and views Dining at The View in the Marriott Marquis is more than just a meal -- it's a full New York City experience, and one we'll be talking about for a long time. We arrived early to the third floor reception desk. The service there was mediocre to say the least. The hostess seemed overwhelmed and not personal. He directed us to the specific elevator that lifted us to the restaurant located at the rooftop of the hotel. The moment you step into the restaurant, you know you're somewhere special. The slowly revolving dining room offers breathtaking 360-degree views of Manhattan, from Times Square's iconic energy to sweeping skyline vistas that feel cinematic. Watching the city transform as you dine is mesmerizing and adds a sense of occasion to the entire evening. The space itself is elegant and modern, with a refined but welcoming atmosphere that feels upscale without being stuffy. The food was Outstanding from Start to Finish Every dish we ordered was beautifully presented and thoughtfully prepared. * Tuna Carpaccio was a standout starter -- incredibly fresh, delicate, and perfectly balanced. Light, flavorful, and an ideal way to begin the meal. * The Beet Salad was vibrant and refreshing, with earthy sweetness and great texture. It felt both indulgent and clean, a wonderful contrast to the richer dishes. * Beef Tartare was executed flawlessly -- finely chopped, well-seasoned, and rich without being overwhelming. A classic done right. * The Spaghetti surprised us in the best way. Simple yet elevated, with perfectly cooked pasta and a sauce that showed real attention to detail. Comfort food with a sophisticated touch. * The Steak was the highlight of the evening -- expertly cooked, tender, and full of flavor. Every bite was satisfying, and the quality of the meat truly stood out. Each dish felt intentional and well-paced, allowing us to enjoy the food while taking in the constantly changing views. Once we arrived to the restaurant itself, the Service was excellent -- attentive, friendly, and polished without being intrusive. The staff clearly knows the menu well and made thoughtful recommendations, ensuring the entire experience felt seamless and relaxed. The View delivers on every level: spectacular scenery, delicious and well-executed food, and warm, professional service. It's perfect for special occasions, romantic dinners, or anyone wanting to experience New York City from a truly unique perspective. Yes, you come for the view -- but you'll absolutely stay for the food. Highly recommended, and definitely worth the reservation. read more

This was my first time at The View, and it really is a unique experience. My husband took me here to celebrate my birthday, so it already felt special before we even sat down. We started with the focaccia bread and butter. It was good, though I personally would have preferred it warm instead of cold -- I think that would have brought out more flavor. For appetizers, we ordered the fried artichokes and the shrimp cocktail. The shrimp cocktail was actually really good -- the shrimp were generously sized, and the cocktail sauce had just the right amount of horseradish. Everything tasted fresh. And of course, the 360-degree rotating view is what really makes this place stand out. Watching the city slowly change as you eat is something you don't forget. For my entrée, I ordered the filet mignon au poivre with mashed potatoes. The steak was very tender, and the sauce was rich and full of flavor. I really enjoyed it. For dessert, we shared their signature chocolate cake. It's huge -- definitely enough for at least three people. It comes with warm caramel sauce, but in my opinion, the cake is already so rich that it doesn't really need it. Overall, I had a great time and left already thinking about when I could go back. The food was solid, the views were amazing, and it was a really memorable way to celebrate a special day. read more

First and foremost the location in the evening is absolutely stunning. The rotating view is amazing and gives a really nice ambiance to your meal. We visited for dinner with a party of nine and reserved ahead online. It was convenient considering we were all staying in the Marriott Marquis where this is located. The Caesar Salad, Prime Rib, and Mashed Potatoes are were all good. A few opportunities to note for this place. First is the service. Attentiveness here from our server was not as great as it should be. The hosts were nice but after we were sat down, the server left much to be desired. Our server was rather short in attitude following their introduction to our table. Drinks took maybe 25 minutes to come to our table and we ordered food 45 minutes after being sat down. Every interaction felt like an eternity in between. Understandably the restaurant can be busy but I didn't feel this was the case to warrant such a few and far between check in from our server. In addition our food wasn't cooked as ordered. My medium rare steak was more in the medium/well done side and my wife's medium steak was well done. I hadn't the opportunity to bring this to my servers attention as the visits to the table were rather limited and wasn't willing to wait for it to be remade. I don't remember the name of our server as I can't recall it being given to us. Nevertheless the experience was good but for what you are paying, it should be exceptional. You have MANY options in the city for fine dining. I'd give it a chance again but would hope the server was having an off night. read more

The View does offer a great view of the city and is unique as the floor slowly spins to offer 360 degree views. That was my favorite part as we had a table right next to the windows. Since we had already eaten, we decided to go to the lounge but didn't have reservations which wasn't an issue. (We were also staying at the Marriott Marquis.) Cocktail prices were on the higher side with my Popstar cocktail costing $23. Quite sadly, there was no live music. So what was the bad part? Our server was inattentive, and when she finally asked us if we wanted anything else, she didn't give us a chance to ask for the check but ran off. We had to stand up and track someone down, and then when we finally got the check, she disappeared again, and we had to give our bill and cash to another server. Also, they seated us next to an obnoxious group who basically mingled around their table the entire time, standing right next to us as though they were having a private party. Not an ideal way to end our night. read more

The only thing I enjoyed about The View was literally, the view. It is the only rotating restaurant in NYC. Our waiter was very rude and not attentive to our table. We ended up having to stay longer than we wanted because we couldn't get our food or drinks served in a timely manner. It also took forever to even get our water refilled. It's located in the middle of Times Square so expect the high prices. I was very disappointed in the food and service especially for what I paid. The View has lots of good reviews so maybe we just dined on a bad night. I would not be willing to go back. read more

We don't do this all the time so it was a nice way to spend our time before going to our show. We had the fried artichokes to share and we each ordered Trophie Pasta. We probably should have shared 1. The bill was over $100. Asli, our server was WONDERFUL!!!! read more

You can never go wrong with a Danny Meyer establishment. He's like the King Midas of nyc the restaurant industry -- everything he touches turns to gold. I had dinner at the restaurant on the 47th floor but they also have a bar/lounge on the 48th floor as well with a different menu. The ambiance is incredible, and it is such a cool concept that the restaurant literally turns slowly so you get a full 360 view of the city as you eat. And the live music is such an elegant touch. Some things to note that prevented me from giving it stellar remarks -- they ran out of all fish when I ordered and it wasn't even that late (we were there at 7.30pm) and as a pescatarian it was pretty disheartening so I just had to go with the crab cake appetiser as my main, which was good so not the worst situation. The food did take a while to come so we were definitely starving by that point. But once it did come, I was pleased. The potato au gratin -- incredible. Absolutely must get. That alone is worth the wait. Overall, it's definitely a cool concept and the food is really good too. read more

Ambiance (5/5): To enter the restaurant, find the Marriott hotel and take the escalators to the third floor. Check in with the receptionist who called an elevator for us, then we'd go up to the top level. If you are afraid of heights be warned--these elevators are SO fast and the views were cool! The restaurant goes a full rotation in 2 hours. You don't feel the movement while its moving at all. It's very cool to see the panoramic view of the city but of course there are moments where you will see the back of a building obfuscated with nothing. It was not very busy on a weeknight at 6pm but did seem to fill out more as the night progressed. Most people were very dressed up, like button up, dresses, etc. Live piano music (all night?) Service (5/5): Every moment, we felt like we were helped when we needed it. Our server was a sommelier and helped to pick the wine for one of us. The food timing was great. We had no issues. Our dining experience was at least 2 hours. Jumbo Lump Blue Crab Cake (5/5): The crab cake meat was very generous, fresh, and tasted superb with the spicy remoulade! Fried Artichokes (5/5): Although a very standard app, the artichokes were fried to perfection and the garlic dip made each bite very creamy and delicious. Caesar Salad (5/5): The salad was large enough to share among a few. Dressing was heavy with several toppings and depth to textures. Tuna Carpaccio (4/5): While the tuna was very fresh, it didn't blow me away compared to the other items that we tried on the menu. Cocktails are outrageously priced at $22 but expected for the views of the city. My Opening Night was delicious but can't fathom paying for that except for the view. Dry Aged Ribeye (5/5): Wowza, the crust of the ribeye is out of this world!! Definitely the better choice over the prime au jus prime rib. While it was very flavorful, the dry aged slice seasoning felt enjoyable on its own a little bit more. I favored the creaminess of the Béarnaise sauce a bit more than their Au Poivre. Lobster Spaghetti ''Alla Chitarra' (2/5): This was a recommended dish and was a bit of a letdown. Expect a pasta dish with some tomato sauce with small chunks of lobster. Sauce was a little spicy but overall there wasn't much to it. They make the pasta in-house! The side accompaniments were not hugely standouts: Potatoes Au Gratin, Creamed Spinach, and Grilled Broccoli However, their desserts were great, namely the: Banana Sundae (5/5): I loved the chunks of banana cake! The caramel dressing melted into the ice cream and everything incorporated really well. Cookie (4/5): The cookie was warm so the chocolate melted and the cookie itself fell apart while picking it up. Perhaps because it was too soft, not sweet enough, or something--the cookie wasn't it for me despite the rest of the group loving it. read more

One of the more memorable dinners! The view was definitely worth it, especially during sunset. The crab cake was good - didn't have much fillers, but the crab meat was rather stringy/dry than lumpy/juicy. (Ah, how I miss you, Maryland crab cakes.) The seared duck breast was tender and paired nicely with the dates but could've been more juicy. The creamed spinach was less creamy than expected but very flavorful, and the potatoes au gratin were absolutely amazing. The signature chocolate cake was very impressive, especially the caramel sauce that came on the side. Service was warm and attentive! Upscale ambience but not stuffy (we don't like pretentiousness, thanks). read more

Such a fun dining experience. Danny Meyer didn't need to do much: serve good food and let us enjoy the view. The revolving restaurant is kind of awesome, I fear. The food is solid, too. Steak and Americana. We had a reservation for 3 at 7:15pm on a Wednesday that I got 2 days before. It didn't seem hard to get the reservation, although it was pretty bustling when we were seated. The view is actually delightful. There's a live pianist, which was cool. We stayed for 3 hours or so and completed 1.5 full rotations, seeing the pianist twice, who was still playing after a few hours. I have to mention that we waited quite a while between ordering and courses, so have patience. It's kind of a luxury being at the top of a Times Square Marriott in their revolving restaurant, I guess. We got cocktails - dirty vodka martinis, old fashioneds, margaritas. All were quite boozy and delicious. They're $22, but what do you expect at a restaurant like this? We got half a dozen oysters, and the complimentary bread service, which is actually some bread crisps that are very well-seasoned with an everything-bagel-like seasoning. Tasty. For mains, we got a burger, the bass, and the duck. Everything was pretty solid, if sliiightly overcooked. I liked my burger bun. The dishes are all also presented very nicely, like the sea bass cut out table-side from the sous vide bag and plated very carefully by a server. For dessert, we shared an espresso martini and the whipped cocktail, along with the $18 chocolate cake. Get the cake, it's massive and covered in caramel and worth it. The whipped cocktail was nice. Service was weirdly...fine. It seems like they were flustered and slow and not trained well? They were nice but so slow, and it wasn't even uber busy... I fear what it's like on a weekend night. We had patience, but also they spilled a whole glass of water on me and again, thankfully I was patient, but come on... friendly, but just not the quality I expect at a Danny Meyer restaurant. Or maybe I should lower my expectations and just enjoy the view. read more

The view is located inside the Marriot Marquis on the 48th floor. It's a very nice and clean establishment with a beautiful view of the city. I came before the crowd and only had raw oysters and drinks (so I can't really judge the food). The oysters were fresh and the drinks were made to perfection. The ambiance was nice and it's perfect for a date night. Everyone was really nice and very attentive. I would definitely come back during my next visit to NY. read more

The staff was so attentive and food was phenomenal:) Finding the place was a bit much but they have signage pretty much everywhere, just ask any employee if you have any questions about directions. Food and drinks were delicious! Fried artichokes were my fave. read more
