We always enjoy our Wednesday Room experiences. This late night visit was elevated by our server Arsen(sp?). Superior service, knowledge, and wit make him a great addition to the team. Overall, great vibe and excellent cocktails (on and off menu)!

The staff was excellent, the waiter came through with an excellent cocktail recommendation - I was looking for a sangria which they did bot have but had a wine free take on a sangria that was amazing and hit the spot perfectly. The food was amazing and the price was very reasonable. Loved the vibe, the decor and the place as a whole. Would love to go back and enjoy the basement lounge next time.

Loved the vibe here, although it was fairly quiet for our early dinner before a play. Loved the cocktail menu and the cozy lounge feel in the lower level.
