"I really liked this place for hosting my best friend's birthday dinner, but I encountered a few issues that might make me hesitant to return for another celebration. First, I was surprised to find out I had to pay a $25 fee to bring in a birthday cake, despite calling ahead to confirm that I could bring one without any extra charge. They must have forgotten to mention the fee during our conversation. Second, while we thoroughly enjoyed the diner, it was incredibly hot inside. There were so many people, and the heat was quite distracting from the dinner party. It was especially warm in the basement. On a positive note, the rooftop area was beautiful, and the food was delicious."
