    They have very good food but the street is so busy on the weekends the waiter had a heard tile getting our order and took a couple of times to bring our drink probably forget or just couldn’t hear us cause of outside noise. But amazing food good vibes and just bad waiter service that day I guess.

    Service was horrible. Bartender doesn't know how to make their own drinks. Appetizers went sent wrong. Serving time took a lifetime, I had to go directly to the bar to follow-up on my drink and saw the bartender just texting and was surprised by the follow-up. Food presentation was good but taste was mediocre. Come to find out, this place is being turned into a gastro pub soon but that is not an excuse to give a very poor service. Not recommended at all.

    Friend & Associate had a great ambience and nice menu selection. The portions are too small for the price. Also the rolls were great but should be included in the meal for the pricing of the menu. The three different butters were a nice touch but the Pesto Basil was bland and needed salt to lift the flavor. If I didn't have the rolls I would have definitely needed to go elsewhere and get something else to eat. The desserts were very tasty but portions looked like a child's serving. Also the pricing was not accurate online. Expect to spend the same as an upscale menu to get an adequate meal. Spent $50 per person which was not expected based on level stated online. Nice menu but wouldn't return unless there was some change with the portions for the pricing.

    Great ambiance great server. Food all sounded excellent but the execution was something to be desired. Food lacked flavor and quail was over cooked. Don’t even get me started on the fruit flies. Will not go back or recommend.

    Food was overall good. The place wasn’t very full and people were spread out inside so you felt the emptiness. The server lacked knowledge about serving wine that is important.
