Seated quickly but our server acted as if she didn’t want to work. Sat there 45 minutes before she took our order, after that she didn’t come back until a hour to say another reservation is set for the table. Not only that but they were fighting in there (no security) other guest breaking it up. Me and my party’s lamb chops were burnt then drowned in sauce to cover it up, broccoli cold. Didn’t bring any silverware with the food(another 5min delay) Only thing good was the mashed potatoes and the lemon drops. My friend spilled a drink and we had to clean it up and get paper towels ourselves. Maybe we went on the wrong evening but I won’t be returning.

This was my second visit, and I had a good time. The music was a nice blend of old and new, which is good for us in our late 30’s LOL. We ordered oysters, king crab and the turkey ribs. The oysters were nicely flavored and a decent size. The crab was delicious and a decent portion. The turkey ribs were tasty and just fell off the bone! Drinks were nice. Our server was nice and attentive. A nice club vibe without actually having to go to the club.

The vibe was really nice although I had reservations for 12ppl we were very tight and didn’t have anywhere to eat our food. The table was small and it was hot in there. I don’t know if the air was out or it was just. Us bunched up. But overall the food was really good. And our lemon drop was good. And they don’t give birthday shots anymore I thought that was a lil awkward I was looking forward to getting a shot. But overall I had a good time

It took 30 minutes to get someone to serve us although we had been seated immediately. The food was okay & the lemon drop was 100% sugar. It was also so loud I had to yell to talk. I accidentally booked this place when my intention was Ecco in Midtown.

Service could’ve been a little bit better. They were out of most food and my lamb chops were black and full of fat !!

We still had to wait even with a reservation. My boyfriend and I were seated at a very low table in the corner and a leg on the table was partially broken. We asked for another table but the waitress said there was only room at the bar. We headed to the bar and there was only one seat available. So we just left.
