    Drinks were strong, buffalo wings were perfectly cooked and not too saucy. The fries left a bit to be desired and were a little dry on the inside but not bad! They have a robust whiskey selection and the band was grooving all night. Definitely the place for a date, solo or otherwise if you want some good grub and a jazzy atmosphere

    We stopped through on a recent visit to hear live jazz. Love the decor and laid back, hip jazzy atmosphere. Wings were very good! Music was nice— we had to leave before open mic started. Didn’t enjoy mussels, or crab dishes. Service is was just okay. Might try again?

    Food was so so and overpriced. Mussels were ok but just tasted like red sauce with Franks hot sauce. Filet wasn’t the best cut. Chicken breast was ugh for$32. Very dark at the dining tables, ceiling pot lights would do wonders. Music was too loud and when the band took over it was way too loud for eating. Great for drinking and listening. Service was slow and very infrequent. Being so loud it was difficult to communicate.

    My partner and I were advised hours after our dinner reservation that other reservations were waiting behind us and there was a two hour limit. Nowhere on your website is this conveyed and we wanted to stay for the later entertainment. Your website could be clearer on dining limits and more transparent about the transition to entertainment. Thanks

    Walking in the front door with employees smoking outside. Music was loud- a one man band on the saxophone. I ordered the short rib with noodles- way to much broth and the meat were the fattiest cuts- not good. The drinks were very small- who serves cocktails in a flute glass? Waitress never checked how the meal was. No soap in the bathroom . The only great thing in there that night was the flatbread. I will not be back.

    The Happy Hour Menu has a good selection of apps and drinks. I ordered several apps (the small fries are REALLY good! 🍟😋), and a Spring Mix salad. The salad had a good amount of greens and added elements (onion, candied walnuts(🤔?), etc.). Next time, I will order the dressing on the side so I can add the amount I want. My wife had the mussels app and the filet mignon, which was outstanding! Our server, Misulay, was very attentive, friendly, and funny. 😊 We joked about the loudness of the band (who *were* very good, BTW) and just smiled when we were reduced to pointing at the items we wanted from the menu on our phones! 😂 Overall, we had a fun time and a delicious meal. We will definitely return again to check out the whiskey bar (which was packed with happy patrons) and the 'upstairs' club for dancing!
