    Horrible service. Concert right next door that the restaurant clients frequent often. Obviously they should know that there was a sold out event that night and be staffed appropriately!

    Love the outdoor patio seating and the location in the park. Had a great cocktail, pizza was good, but shrimp cocktail was just ok. Service wasn’t great. We waited a half hour before we even got our drinks. Our reservation was for an hour and a half before the concert at the Fraze and we felt rushed once we got our food to make it on time. I would recommend this restaurant if time isn’t important.

    Awesome location pre-concert at the Fraze. Limited menu and service was ok, considering the place is not open as a restaurant all the time. Awesome fries.

    I want to love this place, but the service is ALWAYS so BAD. The location for Fraze concerts keeps me coming back, but the food doesn’t and the service is almost enough to give up on it. The service is bad consistently enough that it’s clearly a management problem, not any one (or ten) servers.

    The food was pretty good. .. the truffle fries and the grilled artichokes were excellent. Unfortunately the service was really slow. Extremely slow in fact. It took over 30 minutes to get a drink and when it came, it was wrong. After an additional 20 minutes or so, our food came and finally I got my drink (after we went to the bar to check on it). Our waitress explained that there were several new employees so hopefully it was just due to the learning curve. We will go there again - its a perfect spot for dinner before a show at The Fraze!

    Beautiful atmosphere and décor. Excellent levels of service that evening even with the Fraze concert rush. Expected a limited menu due to the pre concert event however the selections and variety were excellent. Thanks for taking good care of us before the concert. Matt Smith
