    Good food, nice retro 1920’s ambiance, but a little over priced. The whiskey menu didn’t have the price of the drinks until we got the bill, and found out they were way too much than we thought.

    Our Waitress was so slow, we would of ordered more drinks but took ages to come to us. You think if you see your table drinking all there water maybe that they were thirsty lol . In a 2 hour period we were only able to order 4 drinks in total for 2 people.

    Came on Valentine's Day and would never recommend this place again. How they had a pre-set menu and still took 2hrs!? Food came out dry, even though it's all made-to-order. Not to mention it took my husband 30mins to find parking since there is no valet. This is supposed to be fine dining? Management had nothing but excuses saying, "it's all fresh", but my $60 short rib was still dry. The FIRST manger offered us comp drinks, but by then we already order 4 drinks and wanted our food. The SECOND manager told us we could leave and comp the bill. I left that dry a** short rib on the table, tipped the server (she was really great), and left. I even showed our waitress what the short rib supposed to look like, since I ordered it a few months prior to Valentines. Just horrible mismanagement. I heard someone walked out the kitchen that night too. Our bill would've easily been $150, but what a disappointment.

    We stumbled across this place while planning a getaway trip to Norfolk and so glad we did. We made a reservation but opted to sit at the bar and it was such a fun experience. The bartender was personable and funny and the music was perfect. Not so loud that we couldn't enjoy conversation. The food was yummy and arrived quickly. Can't wait to return!

    My meal was very good, the service was excellent, and Janna Ross's musical performances were outstanding. I will definitely return.
