Interesting food in a cool setting. Still a little green on the service as they have only been open a few weeks. Should be a good place as they figure it out. Not strong on wine with as very light list and some miscues on service. Stronger on their cocktails. Definitely check out the rooftop Sly bar.

Our servers were nice, but we were seated for almost a half hour before we could get attention (and they weren’t especially busy). They messed up our order, but the food was good once it came out. While the front of house needs to get tightened up, there’s obviously a chef in the kitchen.

The bartender was the only person in the bar the entire time we ate, but the burgers were great and the drinks were good. Thank you for having some mocktail options! Easy and chill place to get dinner before a show at the 9:30 club.
