Sandman H: Try the Michelada. It's the best! You get Tecate beer in a fishbowl with a spicy salted rim, Worcestershire sauce, bitters (I think) and some V8. Delicious!
Anna T: fresh tacos, good service, great price for quality
Dave McCulloch: Brazil Bowl? You betcha. Probably the coconut rice. It's delicious.

Kelley Gage 🏄🐰🌴☉: The sunset views can't be beat! Try the wild mushroom pizza, the crispy octopus, and a Santa Maria margarita.
Ece: I love the view! Pizzas are recommended! Dont go for the cheese plate though, it comes with only one type of cheese 😅

Sean Iokia-Murphy: Had the dirty fries, two meat plate, bbq burger, kids pork sandwiches, and the brisket burger, all were solid and the staff is on par. Very friendly and great place to eat with family!
Zelia Thompson: The burnt ends, dirty fries, and I think it was a corn cake (or something like that) were so good. Everything we tried was delicious and I also enjoyed the barbecue sauces.
Aaron Stroud: Anything on the menu is good. I get something different each time, but my favorite is Burnt Ends on Mac and Cheese

Tiffany Madden: The location is clean with fast service and will worth every penny. It is now our go to movie theatre.
Geo s: Better than Cineopolis. Nicer screens. Nicer seats. Better foods. More $$$, but worth it... If they could just dim those damn table lights.
Joseph Smarr: Order food (or even booze) and they'll deliver it to your (reserved) seats!
Elizabeth Kilrain: The most authentic Tuscan comfort food! Fine dining atmosphere, a bit pricey, but unpretentious food, flavourful, and filling. Excellent wine & grappa list!
b af: Authentic Italian atmosphere. Come early and bring the kids when it just opens.
Garry Tan: Lobster ravioli and lasagna — fantastic!
