Yes, if you want a high-energy, celebratory date night with over-the-top desserts and creative drinks. Guests frequently praise the fun, Instagrammable vibe, wild milkshakes and large goblet drinks, and many report excellent service from standout servers and bartenders. If you prefer a quiet, intimate evening, be aware this location is often loud, crowded and nightclub-like; many guests say the music and volume make conversation difficult. Consider an early weeknight or lunch for a calmer experience.

Evenings, weekends and casino-peak hours are loud and busy, with long waits reported even for reservations. If you're after the dessert-and-drink spectacle, evenings and weekends deliver the full high-energy experience.

Busiest: evenings, weekends and casino-peak times, guests commonly report crowded weekend nights, loud music and long waits. Quietest: weekday lunches, early dinners and brunch hours are generally calmer.
