Awesome experience last night. Sat at e bar and had a terrific time. The bartender’s were attentive, engaging, and professional. The ambiance was vibrant and energetic, even though it was a Sunday night. The Skillet-Roasted Mussels are a must have! The Ribeye was properly seasoned and cooked perfectly; also pairs well with the Creamed Spinach. 10 out of 10. Looking forward to doing this again

Unique decor - different theme in every space, but each one fanciful and inviting. We sat in the swing room with a beautiful view of the river (but someone please clean those windows to fully maximize the views!) Food was very tasty with large portions - location and portion size justified the slightly pricey menu. Very friendly service. PERFECT after seeing a matinee at the Broward - a pleasant five minute walk along the river from the theater.
