It was my second time attending the restaurant. It was a vibe per usual. They had these special Valentine’s Day drinks that were good. Will be returning again!

We were celebrating an anniversary and wanted to try something new. I read the reviews, scrolled through pics and shared the menu before making the reservation. Unfortunately the restaurant had no heat. There were servers wearing coats and gloves. Our seats were cold. We had to order tea to warm our hands. We never removed our coats and were too cold to enjoy our food. This is in addition to the fact that we had to ask for silverware multiple times and were even given plastic ware because none was available. It was too cold to speak with a manager but this was highly unacceptable.

DON'T GO!!! The staff was rude, we had 4p reservation doors didn't open until 430p. Floors were sticky, table was dirty. We were the only customers in the bar it 15 minutes to get our drinks. We had enough and only got drinks that were not great. Also 20% gratuity is automatically added even with the poor service.

Service was awesome. Very loud R@B music. Crowd was a bit younger. Food was good. Went there for NYE. Fun place If your looking for laid back quiet atmosphere. This may not be the place for you. Probably great for after work or lunch if you need a lift up.

KNOW THE VIBE! I’m here to tell you, yes….we almost canceled our reservation after reading the reviews. DONT. We went NYE, and the atmosphere was swanky and cool with the hint of nightlife. We wanted fine dining, and we got exactly that…but didn’t want fancy music. It was all the right club music from 2010 but soft in the background. The food: PHENOMENAL. Yes, there were a few things not available, but it was mainly seafood items and were told right off the rip. It came out in a reasonable time, and the service was great. I’ll post pictures of the food and the restaurant, but honestly…. I feel like some of these reviews were from people who had no idea about the atmosphere and vibe of this place. 100/10 recommend.
