A little gem. Interior decor was creative and chic with touches of art deco. Mushroom appetizer was beautiful and delicious. The fillet and cod entrees did not disappoint. Already booked my next reservation here.

Gorgeous venue- superb service- love that speakeasy!! Their liquor distilled on location is excellent and drink options are creative and delicious. The food needs some work. Sliders a bit dry- short on ingredients ( no butternut squash in Winter Bounty salad- ordered Key lime pie- nope- out of it- crab dip- a little fishy?- You can’t beat the vibe—-and drinks are for a Speakeasy- that’s what I will stick with!!!
