Had a good time here. Went with a friend who was going to be interviewing in the kitchen so we went the day before. We were very happy with what we had, the service was good, the atmosphere is good, and I would go back.

It's a decent hotel. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. Double sinks in the bathroom, but water pressure could be better. The atrium is huge. There's all kinds of good places to sit and hang out for awhile. We had a group of about 24 last time I stayed there, and the huge roung table in the bar was perfect for us. The pool is pretty nice. There is ping-pong and foosball on the patio, and an arcade inside for the kids. There is normally good service. And some of the food ain't bad, like the quesadilla (which I think was $2 more inside than it was by the pool). I didn't bother with the overpriced breakfast at Tradewinds. And it was never a problem getting transportation, whether they were calling us a cab or providing their own. And it's right across the street from Sea World, just off I-Drive.

Warm beer is gross and if I am going to pay $7 for a warm beer in plastic cup, it better be bottomless. No water except bottled, it's like drinking behind the old harpoon, minus the dumpsters. If it is a brewery-tap room, they should fill growlers. But they don't. Drinking warm beer and eating a fluffernutter off a paper plate is something I did in middle school. For free. At my parent's house. Not in an outdoor tent surrounded by screaming children and uber-hip hipster parents, so you can forget about getting your board game on. If you go in the cooler months when it is enclosed, the condensation covering the walls is like your summer camp tent only with 100x's the germs, assuming the screaming kids are vaccinated.

Such a shame about the service, because I thought the dumplings were very good. I'm not a dumpling aficionado but as food, the dumpling room hit the mark. I was initially turned off by the dumplings-only menu (am I going to still be hungry?!), rest assured a dumpling order=an entree. Very filling! Every other review about the service is spot on. Inattentive, slow and just plain strange. It was one waitress for the entire place. We saw other tables have orders not placed and other passing on dessert because it would take too long. What is the deal? My husband asked for a water and by mid-meal, the waitress had dropped off three glasses of water at different times, not noticing the other waters on the table already by him. So odd! She also waited until the restaurant cleared out completely to clean up all the dirty tables. A couple was walking in as we left and in typical hipster waiter fashion she said, "uhh I'm cleaning up right now so it's going to be a while." How about a "hi, welcome to the dumpling room! Let me get a table cleaned off for you and you can have a seat." I saw Patty Chen walk in the restaurant while we were there so it's incredible she's not taking these service issues more seriously. Shaking my head at this place.

The food is absolutely delicious. The portions are large and customer service excellent. Owner takes the time to make sure his customers are happy. You get your money's worth and then some. Highly recommend. If you want some good Italian dishes and pizza. A must try.

AMAZING FOOD. I got the Torta, which was a bit spicy but I loved it. My boyfriend got the tacos and enjoyed them very much. Happy hour prices are amazing. They play today's hits and hip hop music there. I absolutely love the vibe there!
