We checked in about 7pm for our 7:30 P.S. on Sunday Nov. 14. Before I could even ask anything about the patio, the woman asked ME- Do you want a patio table? I said, we'd love it, and would be willing to wait for one, if possible! There was a big line of people waiting to check in when I first got there, so I sat and waited for there to be noone in line, then I approached the podium politely. When our pager went off, we were taken to a table right at the railing! Wonderful view and food! Our second time of enjoying this ( last time was 4 years ago.)
