The Atmosphere was good the vibes are great love how they had someone walking around taking pictures of any group I definitely got a few. They have different games you can play i think that was the best part besides the mimosas lol. My group definitely enjoyed themselves too and will definitely be visiting Recess again for sure!

Our server was friendly and provided excellent service. We didn’t have to wait too long for our food and drinks either. Just a heads-up: they do require a credit card to be kept on file before placing your order. I would give it a 9 out of 10, only because the drinks could have been a bit stronger. I’m already looking forward to my next visit!

We were seated promptly, but it took 15 minutes to be greeted. Our waitress kept passing by us until we had to literally stop her and ask if we could place an order. While giving her our drink order, another waitress came up and they began to go back and forth about who would serve us. That left us feeling very unwanted mind you. She eventually “placed our order. I put quotes around “placed” because after 30 minutes, nothing ever arrived. The food, the drinks, or the waitress. We saw her deliver food and drinks to the tables around us, 4 of which came after us! At this point we had enough and stopped our waitress to cancel the order. She just said “okay” and walked away. Not an apology or “let me see what’s taking so long”. Nothing. Very upsetting experience and will not be returning. Food: 1 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1 Meal type: Lunch
