It's not super cheap, but these type of places you are paying not only for the food but the experience, and that is always good here.I've been twice now with groups over 20 people and all of us had a blast. The food is pretty standard for a restaurant like this, but it was good. From the appetizers, to the main meals, I did not see anyone in our group upset about what they got. Some ordered meals that were prepared in the kitchen and others, like me, had it prepared right in front of us, with all the standard features, jokes, and fun.One thing interesting about this place is if you have a large group, they will not seat you until everyone in the group has arrived. That might bother some but I love it because it makes everybody get there on time. Lol. I also like the fact that they did work with us when making our payment. We did not do individual checks for everyone, although they were willing. We broke up our groupn into three or four people and paid that way. They also worked with us with the number of people we had with a fairly last minute reservation of about three days for a group of that size.I've been twice, and I would go again.
