    Our server was amazing and very helpful and thoughtful. We took our time enjoying the fabulous cocktails and didn't feel rushed. Plenty of suggestions from our server, but I don't think you can go wrong with anything on the menus. Love the speakeasy vibe!

    I have walked by this place so many times and always wondered why don’t I see anyone inside? Well I got my answer!!! It was an amazing vibe, quaint and tucked away so that we could experience the scene! The ambiance is ideal for a date night or like us ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION. The food was amazing, service was decent, but honestly nothing to complain about. I read the reviews ahead of time about staffing so we were prepared. We will return!!!

    We had a party of 6 for dinner. 3 people ordered alcoholic beverages; 1 person ordered a mocktail. 2 of the 3 alcoholic drinks were not satisfactory; the additional alcoholic beverage and mocktail were quite good. We ordered 2 appetizers - both were incredibly bad with 1 being inedible - several people tried it and no one liked it so not a matter of preference. We ordered 6 different entrees. The chicken piccata arrived with a dry chicken breast - nothing else. Shrimp and grits were ok - nothing special; a bit bland. Crab cakes were acceptable. Steak was good. Chicken parmesan was ok - very little pasta with a ton of red pepper flakes so spicy but not really flavorful. Gnocchi was evidently the same - loaded with red pepper flakes, no other flavor. I was surprised as this restaurant claimed to be "fine dining." Hostess was very nice. Waiter acted like we were an inconvenience. Almost $300 tab for sub par food and bad service. Very disappointed.

    Have been a few times in the past. This time the waiter said they were understaffed so bar serviced was slow. Otherwise the atmosphere was lively and festive. Food was good. As warned the service was a little.
