   Booked this reservation weeks in advance and the restaurant was closed. I received reminders from open table about the reservation and arrived at the restaurant to find out it was closed. There was no signage on the the outside door or any message on the website indicate that it was closed. We wasted so much time getting dressed, traveled there, and calling outside of the restaurant.

   This was a dissapointing experience, the servers appeared to have no idea that we had made a reservation or that it was for the pre-show special. Despite the restaurant being virtually empty we were seated in a section with no air conditioning. Fortunately we were able to move. A number of dishes from the menu were unavailable including the dish my partner wanted to get. I had heard nothing but positive things about this restaurant prior to this visit so this was certainly a dissapointing experience.

   Food was what to be expected of a supper club/nightclub, however, the price points were very unattractive for the offerings - half of our group was debating whether we should go elsewhere. The server was very attentive, friendly and helpful. The drinks were of poor quality - we had to ask to redo the cocktails several times, and one in our party suffered from alcohol poisoning the next day. It was not the ambiance we had expected, including the music. We left a decent tip for the server and, sadly, will not be coming back.

   Great restaurant with amazing food. Perfect spot for pre or post theatre dinner. Added bonus the wine is reasonable priced. Will definitely be back!

   It was beside the Royal Alexander Theatre, the ambiance was great, I ordered the chicken dish, it was just ‘okay.’ My daughter ordered the gnocchi, and it too was just ‘okay.’ Service was slow considering it wasn’t busy. I would return only for the proximity to the theatre and the ambiance.
