    Wonderful gluten-free flatbread option definitely have to check out. We went during the sunset and it was beautiful. I wish the shades were still up. Drink specials for the holiday was great as well. I had the naughty list. Definitely would recommend solids espresso martini.

    The Blue Room was fun overall. When we arrived, the waiter came over and asked for our orders. Their weren't many people there, but he seemed a bit hurried. We placed our orders. Then they brought water glasses, but never brought water over. There was no music ...at least not memorable for a Speakeasy. The whole set up could be more inviting with candles and music...
