Food was ok- but definitely would go back for the ambiance. Great vibe, really good drinks and great service. The food was ok- but didn’t order anything that I would be ordering again or anything that I thought tasted amazing- just ok. But still really fun night out!

Had a last minute change of plans for my birthday and decided to book a reservation for 6. One was available within 2 hours. We arrived an everything was smooth and very nice. Food was amazing and the atmosphere was perfect for a nice family dinner. We all got something different and agreed that it was some of the best we have had. When the mashed potatoes are a favorite, you know it’s all next level! Thank you!
