Runway is always fabulous in every way! Service and entertainment are top notch! We went to watch the show Vixen! It changes every month and I’ve seen it twice now. Another one coming up March 11th! Don’t miss it! A little bit naughty, the singers are all outrageously talented, and it’s very well produced and directed! This time there was a very talented female comedian who was very funny. The whole show will keep you laughing! My stomach hurt from laughing so hard! Runway has a warm and home feel to it and the staff is always very accommodating!

Food was excellent. The menu was small but everything on the menu was tantalizing. I ended up getting the Big Kahuna Tuna Melt and it was scrum. White albacore, white cheddar, tomato, avocado on sourdough. My partner had the Runway Bbq Bacon Burger. He devoured it so I can only assume it was really good. His came with steak fries and I chose tater tots.

I normally don’t give five stars unless I am wowed by the food and staff. I had the Sliders and they were delicious! The staff are so friendly. I love the aviation theme atmosphere. I’ve been coming here for two years now and I have never had a bad experience. I can’t wait until they get back to normal hours.

I ordered the steak salad with chipotle dressing. It was excellent. The person buying produce picked out some exceptionally tasty tomatoes, and the lettuce and steak were also great. I might hang around longer just to get another meal.

Group of 45 luncheon was handled very well. Food was good...especially my Cobb salad. Some had to wait a bit for their meals but most everyone was pleased. Sample fried pickles were unusual but good.

The food has been good, although a bit pricey. Alcoholic drinks are on the weak side, so probably better to just get beer. We go because our friends like the karaoke there. The staff is very nice and pleasant, and the place looks very nice.

Great service and atmosphere. I tried the “Cajun” chicken wings but to be honest, they were the most tasteless and bland wings I’ve ever had. No seasoning or salt and pepper or anything. But the ranch dip did help a little bit.

Good choice of food and drinks for general public and the resort next door. Decent range of drinks available and can be provided as 'to-go', for taking into the resort. Regular events and shows on throughout the year. Can be busy weekends, especially when the resort has events occuring with large guest numbers.

Good food, Fair prices and good service. I had the two item omelette. Mine had cheddar cheese and bacon. It comes with hash browns or country potatoes and toast. The portions were really large and the omelet was cooked to Perfection. The two slices of bacon were thick and cooked crisp. My partner had the runway two egg breakfast which also came with potatoes and toast. They offer a bottomless Mimosa for $8.99. It comes with pomegranate juice instead of orange juice and was quite tasty. The service was very friendly and the weather cooperated so we ate outside on the patio. Our other friend got the bagel and lox plate. At $13.99 it was a large portion and a good deal. We'll all be back.

Mixed review. Went there for lunch today. Place was attractive and seemed very clean (even the restroom). However it took > 10 minutes for anyone to greet us. To be fair, service was good and friendly after that. Prices, while not a value, seemed fair. Cobb Salad: Delicious and attractively presented. Steak Quesadillas: Way overcooked and steak was tougher than an old shoe. It'll be a while before we try this place again.

Extensive bar food menu. Weird space that seems to have a following, but I don't get it. Not conducive to any kind of pleasant dining experience. Your meal may be heavily flavored by any number of performers that I understand bring in their own fans. Although undoubtedly talented, the singer that was performing when I went there for a fast takeout was pretty overpowering for the space, the sounds system, and my mood. Not so for her long table of inebriated fans whose enthusiastic clapping and cheers also did not find a sympathetic ear in me. I took the food home and found that it was missing a couple of crucial elements- sauces touted as delicious in the menu. Fortunately I live nearby so I was back within a few minutes, hopping mad because my dinner was getting cold. After making quite a proper fool of myself in my low blood sugar stupor, the server comped the meal, which I consider the right thing to do. When I got back home, sauces in hand, the food was, in general, okay, despite the lack of warmth. I was that hungry. If you feel like greasy bar food (the deep fried pickles are super greasy but delicious, but only hot, and especially not without the ranch dipping sauce), in a loud, garish disco showroom setting (the automated robo lights were especially annoying), against the backdrop of a notorious clothing optional gay resort, this is definitely the place for you. I won't be back.

Sadly, the nachos I ate last Saturday afternoon are still kicking my stomach around today, Tuesday. I think the cheese may have been curdled. I asked the waiter for a light snack and this is what was recommended. I’m on vacation and this meal alone ruined most of my travels. I’ve had terrible diarrhea ever since Saturday’s nachos recommendation. Do not order the nachos! Maybe consider going elsewhere.
