The popular Terrace Patio is a delightful space for al fresco dining and entertaining large or small groups, tented or under the starry sky. The ever-popular fully stocked, four-sided bar is the perfect place to relax with family and friends. The highly popular Kitchen Pizza oven is another unique feature of the Transit Valley dining experience.
