    Really great food and a fun atmosphere for a birthday dinner! Slightly too loud but the food made up for it and the service team was phenomenal

    Overall it was a pretty decent evening. The food was tasty as were the drinks. The noise level was a bit loud but I understood we were a large party and they clearly had a room designated for such things so noise is expected. The kitchen was a bit backed up so it took a while longer than expected to get our appetizers and there was some confusion when delivering our entrees about who’s meal was who’s but overall a good time.

    The staff here was awesome! 4 of our group of 10 showed up 45mins early to our reservation and they had our table already waiting for us to get started with drinks and food. We were celebrating a birthday and they let us store our cake in their fridge, and even lit the candles and put on a birthday song for us to sing for the birthday girl! We also accidentally left a gift behind and they had it waiting for us when we returned later that night to retrieve it. 10/10 experience!

    It was nice, but nothing special. We will recommend it if you are looking for good drinks instead of a full dinner.

    Happy hour prices were a plus but the food is mediocre (at best) and the service, while polite and friendly, was not proactive (e.g. “Hi, can we get…?”). Pizza crust was tough, pasta overcooked, and salad overdressed). The fries were pretty good. The old fashioned was overly sweet.

    Sat near the kitchen with many other open tables available, thanks a lot for a bad experience..... Kitchen help and service staff kept coming out of the kitchen to stare and observe the customers dining. That was waaaaay comfortable.....NOT. Service was ok and the food was worse. Burger had a nasty taste to it. The toppings on the burger were just not very good. However, the fries were very nice, and the wine was excellent.

    Table for 4, each of us had very different dinner choices. All four dishes were excellent! Drinks also on point! Lovely atmosphere and lighting! Great value! We will return!
