We just had apps (ceasar salad, calamari, flatbread pizza) and drinks (espresso martini, Grey Goose on rocks) and it was all delicious. Katia/Katya our server was great! She was very attentive and her co-server who was a tall, dark male with the greatest smile was very attentive too. The food came out fast which was great so we could make our show in time. Highly recommend.

We were a party of three dining before attending the theatre. I ordered the “half-chicken,” (definitely not half) which turned out to be undercooked and had to be returned as it was too pink. While it was served with gravy and some vegetables, there were no potatoes or side options available on the menu. The other dishes—filet mignon and fettuccine—were satisfactory but unremarkable. The wine selection was limited to options by the glass, with very few choices and prices that felt excessive. A basic glass of Sauvignon Blanc was priced at $17. Our total bill came to $198 for three main courses, one glass of wine, and two local beers. Given the quality of the food and limited offerings, the experience felt significantly overpriced. The one positive aspect was the friendly and attentive staff.

We came early after a matinee performance when the restaurant was pretty quiet still. The women in our party all wanted items from the dinner menu but the men all wanted the bar menu items which were only available downstairs. While we debated who was going to win, the server asked the manager and he allowed us to order from the bar menu as well as the regular. Disaster avoided!! Thanks for the flexiblilty.

Server was nice. Setting is dated. Food tasted okay, but both my husband and myself had tummy troubles the next day. Will not be going back.

Extremely slow service. We arrived on time for 5:00 reservation. Waited more than an hour for entrees, then had to rush to finish before 7:00 theater. Chicken was just barely done, some pale pink still showing. Had heard nice comments about the restaurant. We were disappointed. Not sure why pre theater service was so challenging for a restaurant in the theater district.
