Recess

Loved the ambiance, great music, server was sarcastic and hilarious we loved it!

It was fine, but honestly overhyped. We expected it to have a more moving around (playing giant connect 4)/unique/hang out vibe and it definitely didn't. Everything was very average and definitely not worth the trek to its location.

Great vibes and great food. Drink cups were a little small so we needed refills more often and it took some time for us to get refills. But the music and scene was very fun. And the food was good. Highly recommend the crispy Buffalo chicken rolls!

We had great service and a fantastic experience!

Service was awful. Had to tell server what we ordered a couple times...drink order wasn't put in, had to ask for our drinks more than once. Things we ordered never came out. Just bad! Cute place, but won't return.

Great for young people and a great place to hang out and drink, enjoy the scene. We could tell they were understaffed as the service was a bit slow. The food was good! We got the pulled pork sandwich, cheeseburger sliders, and our kids got the pulled pork sliders. Cost for kids is GREAT. Probably won’t find anything better in the city. Our food was all good and we now want to find Bobs Pizza, which supplies their pizzas and each one that was walked by looked amazing.

I already want to go back!! Every staff member was super nice, vibe was insanely good, and the food delicious. I have multiple food allergies and felt so safe there like I could truly enjoy myself. Service was excellent. Highly, highly recommend.

Waited an hour to be seated when told by the hostess it would only be 15 minutes and that was with the reservation. Drinks are overpriced at about $15 per if not more. That’s not including tip.
Way too expensive to make it a regular stop. I’d say this place is a one and done. Go there, get your insta pics, and then head to somewhere with better service and more reasonable prices. Literally hundreds of bars to choose from in the city.

Recess is a cool spot that offers indoor seating as well as outdoor. The atmosphere, music, and scenery is superb! Only thing that I would recommend is a better late night menu option.

Cindy was a great server! She was very attentive and friendly :)

The food was terrible, the atmosphere was nice. If you’re looking for somewhere to enjoy music and drinks after a meal elsewhere perfect place!

It should be noted that Recess may be the loudest place on earth.

They were greedy for more tip. We tipped 12% but they were in need of more tip.

Had a work happy hour here and the food and drink were exceptional. We’ll definitely be making repeat trips here for a long time.

Always a great experience!

Had a great time celebrating my wife’s birthday

Great roof top area.

I've been wanting to try this place for awhile now. I went here to celebrate my birthday with some friends on a Tuesday night. They were very clearly understaffed and our service was pretty awful (however it wasn't her fault as she had way too many tables to take care of). Some of my friends ended up leaving before they were able to eat as our server forgot to put in their food orders (multiple times) and their food never came. The food we did get was decent especially the loaded tots. I can only imagine what this place is like on a weekend.

It was a lively for a Tuesday evening but definitely a vibe. It's a perfect spot for day parties on the weekends or after work happy hours (probably a thursday or friday). Service was a little slow, probably with how busy it was, but it was not a deal breaker. I enjoyed the evening, would certainly go back, and would recommend to others.

Don’t be fooled the pitcher that cost a 100$ on the menu doesn’t serve 10-12 people like it says, 4 of us went and only got 1 1/2 glass worth of liquor before it was gone and management doesn’t even know the proper line it’s technically supposed to be at but will claim she knows everything is measured. & they put so much ice in there so ask for no ice and because they gone bring it in the cup too.

We ended up leaving early and going somewhere else because the service was so slow. Our waitress was nice - it may have just been due to staffing. It didn’t seem that busy. The 1 round of drinks we got at the bar waiting for our table we reserved and app we got once seated was fine- standard bar food. Overall I would not recommend. There are way more places in the area that have better food.

The food and drinks were great, but the service was lacking. Our server seemed to forget about our table, took a while to get our order, would leave before we gave our full order, wouldn’t check in with us, and forgot to put one of the entree orders in.

I was so excited to come to this spot as I’ve seen it everywhere lately, left super disappointed ! We had extremely slow service the entire night. Our waiter rarely came to our table and we had to wait almost 40 minutes for our first round of drinks and shots. We received no apology from our waiter and he made it seem like we were the rude ones for wondering where our drinks was. Working in the service industry, I completely understand that things get backed up and crazy. But communicating is key with customer service ! Patron shots @$13 a pop, slow service and even tho I made a reservation we did not sit in the cooler part of the restaurant.

Great food, apps were awesome. Service was a little slow but everyone was so nice! Music and energy were up, so great place if you’re okay with a little noise. Very fun!

Awful service and poorly understaffed, thankfully our waitress had a good sense of humor about it. Order drinks at the bar.

The waiters were super nice! They provided excellent customer service and the food and drinks were great!

My Sister’s 40th birthday

Highly recommend bottomless mimosas here

Birthday brunch.

Really fun time with good drinks and good vibes - service was a little slow but I know there were only a few waiters covering lots of tables!

How much fun you have at Recess all depends on where you’re sat. The first 2 times I went, we were sat more toward the bar area, and that was SO fun. More of a scene, you’re near the DJ and just the general vibe is much more lively. This time though was SO boring. We were sat in the large open general area by the containers. The flow of this area sucks, and is cut off by the raised middle portion of seating. You feel very removed and it’s just meh. I would not go back unless we were guaranteed seating toward the front.

Young crowd, loud, food was awful. Would come back for the drinks and people watching

Dogs were cute, but the staff serving us at our table was really rude for no apparent reason. Not to mention it was my birthday, but good place for pictures. Drinks are okay.

Great place to take your friends to chill type of spot.

Took for ever to bring food and drinks were over priced.

Charged us DOUBLE the amount on our bill and we’re trying to call them but they keep transferring me to random people and giving me random emails. HORRIBLE!!

great service and great drinks!

Outdoor space is great! Fun music and lively atmosphere. Service was sufficient and everything came out in a timely manner. Food was nothing special and a bit on the over salted side. I was under the impression that the $10/person reservation fee was applied to the final bill; however it was not deducted when we paid. Would definitely go back for drinks and fun, but wouldn’t seek this place out for a yummy meal.

The ambiance, food and service was awesome. The nice view and just overall highly recommended!!!

Server was excellent in terms of friendly customer service, although the wait time in between cocktails and food seemed infinite - though I hardly hold the server exclusively responsible for that. Beyond that if Recess didn't have the ambiance the food is ultra mediocre and unimpressive.
