We ordered the Traditional Board and the Steak and Eggs - the food was delish!! They were playing rap music on Easter Sunday, nothing against rap music but there were a couple of older customers in the restaurant and I doubt that's what they wanted to listen to. Our waitress was great! What I wasn't happy with is we were seated at a small 2 person bar top table (there were only 2 of us) we were told the Traditional Board was huge and would take up most of the table. We asked if we could move to a larger table and we were told that they had a lot of reservations and we couldn't move, so they grabbed a second small table and moved it next to our existing table. The table was uneven, wobbly (with a napkin shoved under on side) and they moved them together the long way, so I was further away from the other person in my party, making it hard to talk over the music. We had a reservation too, we were the first people in the restaurant that day, we spent over $100 on brunch and there were only FIVE tables being used the entire hour we were there. There was absolutely no reason we couldn't have changed tables and been comfortable.

Went for brunch. They were having some special event with a DJ that was WAY too loud. We waited so long to get a drink, we decided to just leave.

We went for Brunch 3/30/1025. I think this is new for them and hope they will succeed. Cute music and theme from the movie dirty dancing. Food and presentation were excellent. Feel they are working through service/staff learning curve. Took a while to place orders. Food served but had to wait for napkin/silverware. One of the managers was good about checking on us and filling in the gaps. We will go back and see how it goes. This has the potential to be one of the best brunch option in town.

When a server comes to an igloo zip door behind them. It lets all the heat out! The food was awful. Selections are few and drinks are weak. I was disappointed but I do love the rooms at the ES.

There was initially a bit of crisis upon arrival because I was informed that the igloos on the 12 floor rooftop for Valentine's night were overbooked and I was "the last one who had booked" (3 wks ago! maybe a call by now?), so that they were shifting us to an inside private room instead. This was very disappointing as the igloo experience was key to eating there for a Valentine's date. Luckily, just as I was about to tell the other three of us the disappointing news, a few of the parties there were already sat in the igloos decided it was too chilly out there and came in, freeing up an igloo so that our reservation could be fulfilled. Aside from that our server was a saint, having to run in and out of the building in the literal blizzard, was still very attentive to come out and check on us and we tipped her accordingly. The fancy apps we split: poutine, brussel sprouts, nachos, flatbread, etc. were all very tasty and we had a great time in our "snow globe". We are eager to go back and eat on the roof in the summer to enjoy the contrasting feel!

Ate in one of the igloos. The nachos and poutine was delicious. Innovative drinks, and just a fun experience. Highly recommend trying the igloo.

Upon arrival we waited at an empty door to be seated while the staff sat and talked. When we were seated we were greeted with obnoxious music and a live game session going on. We received water and a menu and then no one came back for at least 10 mins. I have went for breakfast before and the breakfast was great even tho the service was terrible then too. This time we went for dinner and menu was very disappointing. It looked like a bunch of appetizers with only 2 options for a meal. There was more alcohol on the menu than food. My husband and I decided to leave and go somewhere else (we didn't get any service anyway).

Crab cake benedict was great. Cinnamon roll cocktail was disappointing as it tasted significantly more like a coffee drink and I would not have known it was meant to be inspired by a cinnamon roll from the taste. The blueberry pancake cocktail would have been a good flavor but we all agreed it was way too sweet. Service and atmosphere good

Be careful paying your bill, they automatically add gratitude and then give you your tab to tip off that.
