We came for a chill evening, ended up ordering the Spicy Feta Dip twice. It’s that good. Crowd was fun, music was just right.

Great happy hour deals and tasty food. Our server had quite an attitude, especially when we pointed out an error in the bill. His demeanor changed when he realized that we were highlighting a true error (not his but the check system, which added a few dollars to an item), but it left a bad impression. Not sure we’d return.
