   Great Christmas vibe. I had their signature Christmas cocktail and it was delicious. Our server was friendly (ha well he was) and efficient and our food came in a reasonable time. The menu has a lot of options and everyone loved their order. Highly recommend the fried cauliflower! Fantastic!!

   Second time eating here and it’s always a great time. Cauliflower appetizer was a little salty. Spinach salad with grilled chicken was yummy. Schnitzel was a little overcooked but flavourful. All in all a respectable meal.

   The restaurant was a very nice surprise underground jewel- nicely lit and decorated. Seats comfortable and cozy-waitress very attentive and friendly. We ordered the house soup- amazing! Ordered ciabatta chicken bun which was delicious- we asked for peppers on the side- they came on sandwich- I ate my half and the cook quickly replaced my partners non- peppers sandwich. Very tasty. French fries were tasty but too many little ‘ends’ well done. Over all an 8/10.

   Excellent atmosphere, as we received a booth per request. Great service as well. Philly cheesesteak wrap was delish.

   A friend and I were meeting up for lunch and after hearing good reviews about the friendly society we decided to make a reservation here. So happy we did! Amazing food, great environment and loved everything about our time there. Would recommend and return again.

   We dined here 3 times in a week and brought guests each time. First experience was fantastic, quick service and accommodations made for gluten and dairy allergies. The Reuben was fantastic however I would say the Poke bowl was just okay. The second visit was for lunch and we had the wagyu burger. It was fantastic however it was brought with bits of bacon in and around the burger ( I specifically requested no bacon as I do not eat this). It looked though the kitchen added it to the burger and then realized but not only did not bother to fire up a new burger but also didn’t put in enough effort to even fully remove the bacon. This time we tried to order wings again without breading as we had our first visit and after 20 minutes of waiting was then told the kitchen won’t do them (we had this just the night before so whilst I appreciate it was accommodating the same effort was not applied on our second visit). The third visit the same with the burger, bits of bacon hanging off the side of the melted cheese and exactly the same experience with the wings (maybe too much effort for the kitchen) but just say no and don’t have guests wait 20 minutes after ordering and then deliver the news. The service on our third experience was very very slow, our order was taken 45 minutes after seating. Overall the food was great, service good 2/3 times but it seems the kitchen is not too keen on accommodating dietary requests even after saying they would.

    Ambiance is very cozy, staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. I was thrilled to see a section of the cocktail menu with Keto beverages! The food was absolutely delicious and the portions were very filling. Would definitely return and recommend to others!
