   The atmosphere and decor in The Foundation Room was classy/cool. Bohemian vibe in a lounge setting. We were comfortable and enjoyed the style, low lights and relaxed setting. We adhered to the dress code given in our pre-arrival email but noticed many patrons who did not. Which, you know, is fine and good. They were comfy in their t-shirts, cut offs and ball caps but it did detract a bit from what was meant to be an upscale, classy/casual evening for us. Also, if we had known the dress code that was given would not be adhered to we may have dressed more casually ourselves. I read several reviews that the drinks served here were pricey but strong so we ordered drinks with our meal expecting them to pack a punch... They did not. I had FIVE drinks in total and had nothing to show for it. The Good Karma Margaritas were perhaps the only one that had an acceptable alcohol to mixer ratio. But it was served in the most shallow glass I have ever received a drink in, in my life. VERY small cocktail. My dinner guest gave me his margarita as he didn't care for it. The Cucumber Zen was bland and too iced down. The Perfect Gin tasted good but again, was weak. The Espresso Martini was delicious, but also not strong. I do not drink often. 5 cocktails should have left me feeling damn good, instead I was left wondering where the booze was. The Umami double was delicious. Yes, it is a 'just' burger, but it's a good one. The pork sliders were good but very small. They need a side item or a third slider to not feel like an appetizer. A sauce would have been nice along side them as well. Baklava Cigarillos was our desert. You get three. They were good, but the honey sauce/syrup served with them was far too sweet. Service was good but not great. Very attentive at first, then we had to gesture our waitress over to order desert, more cocktails, and to get the check. Still, very polite and much appreciated.

   The service was terrible and the food was fine yet expensive. It’s hard to even put into words all of the things our server mis-managed. I thought this would be a fun experience before seeing a show at House of Blues but was so not worth it.

   Food was not good. Service was not good. Room was freezing. When we mentioned it, our server said it's because it will be crowded later. Will not return.

   Wish they would go back to their old menu, it was so much better than the artsy menu they have now.

   Unless you are familiar with a lot of ingredients You likely won’t be able to make out what the dish is by the menu alone. Lack or photos on apps like Yelp made ordering a shot in the dark. My husband ordered the jamon and cheese which was bread with melted cheese in a little saucer however the cheese was difficult to work with and lumped together. I got the umami something that ended up being a glorified burger that was tasty but the only thing of what we ordered that was actually worth ordering. Their focaccia bread was hard and tasteless and a waste of $7. The host was very nice and the elevator guy was as well. The waitresses were nice but seemed a little judgey when I asked for a lemon or lime to doctor the “perfect” gin and tonic that was very gin forward which is ok, just not what I expected. The interior design and ambiance was cool.

   Small menu selection, very dark inside, horrible service and food was bad. Advise you to go somewhere else.

   How this only had a 3.9 rating on Open Table when we booked, I'll never know. The restaurant itself was absolutely unique and fantastic. It was unusually inexpensive, especially for that type of restaurant. The food was incredible. The only downside was the small portions- so think 'super fancy restaurant with small portions', but honestly I just ordered a second helping and it was great. Two of us, with drinks, under $100, including tip. We were greeted with Champaign for my wife's birthday. Once caution: the check in process is SLOW because they take you through a metal detector, get your name and ID and then send you up in an elevator two by two. Takes a bit to park in the parking garage across the street too (which is $22- city garage I think, or private). The Foundation Room is on the street level, so don't go to the big House of Blues sign and to the 3rd floor like we did. One other piece- there is NOT live music. There is dinner, then there is a separate show that is booked separately. That wasn't overly clear when I booked. BUT, as a dinner venue, it was a home run. 5.0 all the way.

    We loved the atmosphere. My husband had trouble seeing as the lights were a little too dim for him. I wish the meal would have come with one small side. However, the skirt steak was cooked to perfection and had great flavor.
