If it were possible to give no stars I would. Wanted the chicken wrap which they did not have. I ordered the turkey club sandwich that contained pork of which I was not aware and I don't eat pork. I asked to get a plain cheese pizza instead. The sandwich was $7.25 and the personal pizza was $6. I waited 15 minutes for a pizza that was exteamly small ,half baked , tasteless and sloppy. And I practically had to be arguing back and forth with the cashier to get the difference from the price of the sandwich. The cashier Marco was very nonchalant and stated that the prices were pretty much the same. It was not about the amount but the principle of the matter. I also had the icee for $5.50 that tasted like bad watered down cool aide. My husband had the turkey club which he said was dry and bland. I have eaten at the chart house on the same premises and their customer service is top knotch obviously the quality did not trickle down to the base of the tower. Horrible service.

Out of a lot of stuff, and the cashier had to "go check" on every item I asked about... finally ordered hot dogs and it took 45 minutes for them to prepare them!!! There were no other customers waiting. We were looking for a QUICK bite and we could have been in and out of the steakhouse next door in less time! The lemonade was disgusting... tasted almost fishy. DO NOT eat here unless you just want a bag of chips! I expected more from a cafe at a significant tourist destination!

Got the Turkey Club and chocolate chip cookie. After a long wait of over 30 minutes I got my sandwich. It was the driest and blandest sandwich I have ever had, tried to finish it but couldn’t. 10 minutes later finally got the cookie. Cookie wasn’t bad. Would not recommend this place to anyone though.

Incompetence taken to a whole new level. Sold food to the guy infront of us , came back 10min later telling him they dont actually have that.We ordered a single pastry, took them another 5min to get that..gave us the wrong item. Employees seem to have no idea whatsoever of what they have, where it is and what they should be doing.

Standing at the FRONT of the line with 2 kids. Once the THREE employees finally looked up, they have the nerve to try and take the order of the people BEHIND me... it's no wonder why they having nothing but 1 star reviews. Overpriced, horrible service.

Ordered the tower hot dog and the bread was cold. After a while, we ask for our drinks (they were taking too long) and the cashier told us he forgot about them.

  • richard kelley

Ordered two ice cream. Paid with $1.00 tip. They served six people who were behind us. My group arrived. I asked for a refund. They would not refund the trip.

A few small tables inside, they have fountain sodas as well as bottles and Cafe drinks. We rehydrated and enjoyed their huge desserts.

  • James Garza

Ice cream was "too frozen" to serve and rice crispy was stale.
