We went to the Garden with out-of-town guests shortly before closing on a hot, busy Saturday. We were seated promptly and treated to a nice window-side table in the delightfully cool restaurant. That was the end of promptness, though. We didn't see a server to even get a cold drink for at least 15 minutes. It took another 15 for the drinks to arrive, and then we waited for food. The menu provided options for everyone and offered a wide variety of beverages. My club sandwich was excellently prepared and presented. The seafood salad sandwiches were well received, although the men didn't think the Reuben sandwiches were anything to write home about. The house specialty peach lemonade was delightfully refreshing; lightly flavored and not overly sweet. Fresh rolls were delicious but seemed an odd handout during lunches of sandwiches. Lots of families and international groups were there, which was fun to see. No one rushed us, even though the restaurant closed long before we (and others) finished and were ready to leave. The staff were friendly if slow and overworked, and the ambiance made up for the wait.
Pros: Delicious lemonades; Amazing views
Cons: Slow service
