The main dining room was by far my favorite! Tandor (Indian) was a close second!

Service was provided by our wait staff team: Elmer Degala, Anastacia, and Parman. They were superb! Very friendly and attentive, and they gave the best recommendations! It was also wonderful to see the entertainment they had on special nights, the singing and dancing was a blast!

Good to hear

We ate in the Main dining room 3 times and every time was very slow. We averaged an hour and half to two hours every time.

What was your average time from start to finish even eating in the main dining room?
