The worst crispy rice I’ve ever had and the pasta was overcooked and the sauce was terrible. Would go back for drinks but the food was dreadful.

This was my first time visiting this restaurant. The table we were sat at had hair all over so we asked to be moved. The food didn’t have much flavor. Id be willing to try it again as it could’ve been my selections. However, my server, made the experience worse. She was more attentive to other patrons. It wasn’t busy where i could understand. However she was busy flirting at the bar. Never asked how our food was or if we needed anything. When we were able to flag her down the things we asked for weren’t provided timely. We asked for bread she said shed bring some it never came out. I requested another French 76 she forgot and asked at the end of dinner if i still wanted it. We never got more water. I asked for some pepper and she brought the pepper crusher and left it on the table. I’m not sure if that’s normal typically it’s crushed into the dish and taken away but even if the patron does it she never came back so i could have it removed as you can imagine it takes up space with all the dishes. We were also charged for shots vs the drinks ordered. I ordered a french 76 i think it’s 16.00 i was charged for a 26.00 shot. My cousin was charged for a shot instead of a lemon drop. Truly disappointed especially since it was a first visit.

The service was great, and we loved our waitress. However the atmosphere and crowd was definitely lacking a vibe, and overall the restaurant is way too pricy for what it is. We won’t be coming back.

Terrible service they make you put in your whole order so we did and we asked them to course it out - they then brought all the food at once - they kept bugging us to place an order when we were having drinks with a friend we hadn’t seen in a long time - after dinner they asked us to leave because they had another reservation - also they asked for a credit card to make the reservation - we will never go there again - MC
